Awards for Young Scientists
To encourage
young scientists, 'Buti Young Scientist Award' has been instituted.
The award consists of a CITATION and a CASH AMOUNT of RS.5000.
On behalf of Buti Foundation, Plasma Science Society of India (PSSI)
at its Annual National Conference will present this award to the
selected young researcher for the best presentation. Starting from year 2012, the award amount has been increased to Rs. 10000.
The first award was given at PLASMA 2004 (PSSI Conference) held at
Bundelkhand University at Jhansi in December 2004. Looking at the
great enthusiasm of the young participants for competing for this
award, President, Buti Foundation had decided to have two such awards
from 2005 onwards. One award will be exclusively for scientists from
Universities and Colleges and the second one will be open to all young
scientists. This had been done keeping in mind that the scientists at
Universities and Colleges do not have facilities comparable to the ones
at Research Institutes. However there will be no compromise on the quality
of the presentation. In case, the presentations are not to the mark, no
award will be given that year. For further information please check
