RACE FOR EXCELLENCE Science and technology has always been frontiers for prosperity and well-being of human life. The fundamental backbone of scientific clues and technological intervention relies on course and discourse of the natural attributes within the nature itself; taking into consideration of the physical, chemical, biological and computational prospect. Nature is no doubt the greatest scientist, researcher and expertise, who timely challenges us, evokes us and motivates us for innovations, creations and constructive implications. Biological sciences and allied research is on the hype in current scenario, because it is direct or indirect (through model animals) discourse of aspects pertaining to human at genetic, biochemical or molecular level. Utilizing the science of biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, and information technology to develop products and services of great promise is the threshold of current scientific research. With different technological intervention and theological implications, the scientific community has not only been able to manipulate organisms but also manipulate life and materials at the atomic level for benefit of human civilization. Human capacity has been exemplified by cutting edge innovations and implications for better life. Human has been able to unravel from bottom of sea, through the surface of earth, and beyond the atmosphere into the space. But, as one goes on unraveling the intricate aspects of nature, you face with new meshwork of mysteries. This is the charm and vigor of science and technology that makes the things just moving on forward and ahead. The scientific community: the team leaders, associates, and assistants in academia and industries are enormously involved in breaking through these mysteries, modulate them and utilize them for worthy outputs. With this manifestation of the hypothesis to final accomplishment, the current science and technology is moving rapidly and efficiently. But, the story starts from here, the deeper we go the wider the horizon becomes; accomplishing one landmark is starting point for a longer race to compete with nature. It is race for excellence; nature versus the scientific nurture, zeal, passion and commitment. Are you ready to go is the call? If yes, get set ready and go! If not then wait and let others to go before you but you have to move on. It is something like, you make a choice or the choice will make you! Be ready with the strategy! We heard the voice, culminated our energies and got on the track for the journey! Before, saying “Here, it is”; we are thankful to all the stakeholders and bolstering hands on our effort.
