'Bioprospecting ' is a word that has recently been coined to describe the centuries-old practice of collecting and screening plant and other biological material for commercial purposes, such as the development of new drugs, seeds and cosmetics. Companies that sponsor bioprospecting expeditions, in particular from the pharmaceutical or food industries, hope to find information from the biological resources they collect that will lead to new products, for example novel drugs. Some of these expeditions also seek to acquire useful information about such resources from local people including, in the case of drugs, native healers. It can also be argued that bioprospecting also plays a wider role ...

Lack of collaboration and coordination among scientists is the reason why poor regions of the world trail in crop biotechnology. Without proper coordination they cannot achieve targeted growth and cannot work together. At a time when Africa desperately needs crop biotechnology to alleviate hunger and malnutrition, its scientists should be moving towards collaborative research. Scientists who pull in different directions can't make any meaningful impact in the scientific world. Cooperation, not competition, is the bane of science. With regard to crop biotechnology, collaboration is urgently needed if Africa dreams of solving its endemic food problems. Currently, Africa is playing host to top...

Source: The below information is taken from the book 'THE HIGH PERFORMANCE ENTREPRENEUR' Leslie Auchincloss, an Irishman who had business interests in the world of enzymes, was interested in developing papain, an enzyme derived from papaya. He wanted to set up a business in India but did not know anyone who could be a good partner. An Australian brewer named Colin Dowzer had an idea. There was this brilliant young women who had trained under him and had since returned to India. Why not speak to her, he told Colin. At 25, Kiran Mazumdar was nursing her 'disappointment and disillusionment'. She was the daughter of a brewer who had worked all his life for someone else, barring an aborted ve...

Building on research that chewing gum can cut snack 'attacks' in consumers, scientists in the US found men and women who chewed gum three times hourly in the afternoon ate fewer snacks. Specifically, the gum-chewers ate fewer sweet snacks than when not chewing on gum. 'Overall, this research demonstrates the potential role chewing gum can play in appetite control, reduction of snack cravings and weight management,' said lead researcher, Dr. Paula J Geiselman, chief of women's health and eating behaviour and smoking cessation at the US-based Pennington Biomedical Research Center. Competing in saturated US and European markets has thrust chewing gum makers into intensive R D efforts to create...

Social entrepreneurship in India is making greater strides towards inclusiveness by involving every strata of society to tap into the momentum and growth of the country. However, in spite of several initiatives, social entrepreneurship eco-system in India is not coming together as well as it needs to. Their focus and collaboration on solutions should be directed towards not merely one-off acts of charity, but adding up to a vast array of sustainable services across sectors and industries that help people at the base of the pyramid, which is not happening in the country now. In the post-independent era, many enterprising men with social bent of mind had ventured into setting up educational institutions, which helped the country to move out of the chaotic state into a vibrant and democratic environment. But over the decades, these established institutions which laid the foundation for modern India, because of their sheer size, were forced to evolve into large business enterprises...

10 things about good bosses Do you like your boss? Let's be honest, a majority of employees will definitely come with a negative answer to this question. Yes, bosses are not always there to be liked. But is there any fun being a boss who is not respected or ineffective at managing staff? Of course not, so let's have a look at what it takes to be a good boss. Below are 10 things that bosses can do to guarantee that their subordinates and co-workers will respect them. 1. Praise the staff in public, correct them in private Good bosses know it very well that praising and encouraging the staff is the key to have a positive atmosphere within the office and it helps to bring the best in them. If someone does something well, a good boss should recognize them for their efforts. People need to know when they are doing well and that they are appreciated. However, if someone is not doing so well, speak to them privately, instead of calling them out in front of a group. 2. Pay people what...
