11 Section : Description and Definition of Success Indicators and Proposed Measurement Methodology Objective 1: Ensure availability of adequate human resource at all levels Description One of the priorities of the 11 th Plan is to increase the number of students enrolled in life sciences, make available skilled human resource to industry and attract scientists from abroad for working in Indian institutions/ universities. This is effected through various fellowships and HRD & R&D schemes. Gradual increase in the numbers of human resource at all levels from the year 2007 to 2012 is planned. Methodology To ensure steady flow of human resource at all levels fellowships are announced much in advance every year, processed on competitive merit basis for awarding to suitable candidates. While care is taken on quality, the required number is ensured through regular advertisement accessible in India and abroad. Objective 2: Engage public-private partnerships for development of products of social relevance Description Implementation of projects involving public-private partnerships in focused areas of agriculture and healthcare for accelerated development of products and processes of social relevance is priority. For industrial R&D projects, time to start and time to market are important parameters of success. Therefore, the time line for launching the projects have been chosen as an important success indicator. Methodology The PPP schemes are advertised on regular basis 2-3 times in a year and processed through technical and financial appraisals for expediting the same in time. Objective 3: Promote basic and translational research for development of products and processes of social relevance Description India to be competitive in global life science and biotechnology scenario, capacity in genomic research of crops for development of products is priority. Launching such projects on time provides advantage in prior art and IPR generation globally. Similarly, a decade of R&D in various vaccines need to be translated quickly into products. The grand challenge programme itself is a time bound activity. Number of publications in SCI index as per web of science database in life sciences reflect growth of basic research in a given country globally. Increase in the number from year to year reflect the capacity for generation of advanced knowledge, therefore technology development and IPR generation. Methodology Since, these programmes were included in 11 th plan adequate preparations have already been made for launching of them in -11. A separate Science Observatory for monitoring growth of publications in different areas in life sciences has been established for the purpose. The observatory has full access to databases for the needed measurements. Objective : Establish of new centres of excellence and technology platforms Description The centres originally proposed in 11 th plan were assessed for their need in consultation with stakeholders and have to be launched during to build the capacity in biodesign for medical devices and implants and cutting edge translational research in child health. page : 11 of 13

13 Section 5: Specific Performance Requirements from other Departments Objective 1: Ensure availability of adequate human resource at all levels NIL Objective 2: Engage public-private partnerships for development of products of social relevance A prerequisite for the private sector laboratories to be qualified for PPP schemes is their recognition by Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR). Delay in furnishing recognition certificate in some cases may delay implementation of proposed projects. The second prerequisite for sanctioning the projects to industrial R&D units is timely signing of detailed MOU agreeing to various terms and conditions on IP generation etc. Prolonged negotiations in this regard in some cases may delay of the sanction of the projects. Objective 3:Promote basic and translational research for development of products and processes of social relevance In case of vaccines, approval for clinical trials depend on clearances from Drug Controller of India and Genetic Engineering Approval Committee (GEAC) of Ministry of Health and Ministry of Environment and Forest, GOI respectively.
