Project funding isn't being released on time, labs are running out of materials, tenured PI's don't get to publish as often. But it's the PhD degrees that get most affected, if we don't publish on time, we may need to re-register and wait years..1/n #phdvoice@CSIR_IND@DBTIndia
2/n...for years before getting the degree. We are expected to produce excellent research, but true excellence goes into figuring out ways to beg/borrow materials even for simple experiments. Getting into PhD, I never thought it'll get this bad..
3/n.. Toxic work culture wasn't enough, we have to struggle for basic requirements of research and livelihood (fellowships don't arrive on time either, do they!). I know I'm ranting, but honestly, at this point, I'm absolutely tired of feeling on edge ALL the time...
4/4 researchers of a supposedly smart and science driven nation shouldn't have to feel this way. Finances are becoming a huge issue in research and nobody seems to know how to fix it. The ones in positions of authority don't say much. @CSIR_IND@DBTIndia
