The Website was started officially on 28th February 2007 on National Science Day.

Who are we?

Past

IndianScience.in can trace its roots all the way back to a Necessity (rather say a lacuna at that time) of a online platform for science peoples for efficient interaction and compilation of utilizable science information and resources. It was thought best to have online science resources (website), where we can compile all the information about science. The information sections required and selected were Conferences, Societies, Journals, Career and Jobs, a Discussion board, laboratory accessories, Research Projects, Science News and information about Scientists. As persons behind this plan were not programmer (say did not know much how to design and compile websites and program that), so it was best to start from scratch. At this point, www.IndiaScience.in name was selected giving it touch of Science from India. In the starting most of the pages designed were static. Planning and designing started sometime in August 2006 and it was on February, 28th, 2007, the website was launched with one Dynamic section i.e. Discussion forum (later named as SciForum) and other sections pages remaining static. This was a huge milestone for IndianScience.in. After that there is contineous development and adding features rich sections one by one. The whole site as such is being converted into database driven site and all previous static pages being translated into dynamic ones.

Present

The people behind IndianScience.in are a diverse group of individuals (other than Programmers) who in their free time, put their efforts together to help make IndianScience.in what it is today, and help IndianScience.in take strides into the future. Many different skills are expressed and used like designing, modification, development, evaluation, information collection and so on. Each part works together to help IndianScience.in grow and reach its full potential. We are people, just like you, who put our efforts into IndianScience.in, driven by passion we have for the science. As all the registered members (including you) are part of IndianScience.in, so everyone can add/update information on any of the section. For a listing of People who are responsible for designing and development (the core team members), who have helped put together the latest release of IndianScience.in, see the team page.

Future

IndianScience.in strives to get better and better. Contineously adding up new features to each section (with so many features each section is a complete site in itself). In the future, you can expect IndianScience.in to be even more user-friendly, all developed sections offering you all resources through one place, and much more. This is just the beginning for IndianScience.in, expect the building blocks (sections) of IndiaScience.in and the community to be expanded, but to keep to the original goal: Simple, elegant, powerful, and all science resources/information at place.
