Many scientists in different countries of the world have been involved in research and other scientific work. Similarly, there is no shortage of scientists in Nepal. The research of these Nepali scientists and the results obtained from them can be very important for the development of the country. However, so far, no initiative has been taken by the Government of Nepal on such a serious issue.

In this connection, the brain pooling program will be continued in Nepal. The Nepal Academy of Science and Technology (NAST) has given continuity to the brain pooling program. The Academy also conducted the program in 2020. At that time, some Nepali scientists working at home and abroad had participated. Despite the small number of applications in the program conducted in the past years, after seeing the effectiveness, the foundation has decided to continue this year as well.

In the year 2020, only two scientists participated as NAST Eminent Fellows.
