Speakers at a seminar held at Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University on Wednesday called for stronger collaboration among scientific academies, universities and research institutions to better support young researchers.
According to the Associated Press of Pakistan, participants said expanding opportunities for innovation and mentorship was essential to preparing a new generation of scientific leaders in the country.
The seminar brought together figures from the country's scientific and academic community, though the full list of speakers and specific recommendations discussed at the event were not detailed in the available report.
The emphasis on mentorship reflects broader concerns raised periodically in Pakistan's scientific community about retaining young talent and providing structured guidance as researchers move from academic training into independent research careers.
Calls for closer ties between academies, universities and research institutions are a recurring theme at similar gatherings, often aimed at addressing gaps in funding, laboratory access and career pathways available to early-career scientists.
No further details on specific initiatives or follow-up actions stemming from the seminar were immediately available.
