OSDDChem formally started functioning from April 2012.
It
is heartening to see that within short span of six months this program is already becoming popular with the real
“MSME”s of Indian Universities/Educational Institutions. More than 48 projects with nearly 1505 molecules have
been submitted so far.
Looking at the list of the institutes from where
these projects have been submitted, I feel a great sense of closeness
with real "Bharat". This was our dream when we conceived this OSDDChem initiative. CSIR, from the very beginning, has always provided research support to small university faculties who were otherwise afraid to approach big funding agencies.

Prof. CNR Rao
started his research career
with Rs.3000 research grant from CSIR.

OSDDChem will rewrite the way drug can be discovered in the country where the stakeholders will be unsung
researchers from universities/institutes across the country.
Echoing
the famous call of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, let us say....."give us molecules, we will give you drug."
The number is increasing, slowly but steadily. Do
not let go this golden opportunity; walk an extra mile to realize your
dream.
We will be there with you extending our helping hand to do whatever is needed to be done to realize your dream.
……..drops
become dribble, dribbles a trickle, trickles a rivulet, rivulets run to a
river, rivers to ocean……………
