Pakistan is among the lowest spenders on health research where many young medical graduates and research enthusiasts fail to conduct research in their areas of interest due to lack of funding or strings attached to the availability of research grants from the government and international institutions, experts said at the recent inauguration of a medical research forum.
They said there are many junior researchers and medical students who are doing MPhil and PhD in Pakistan these days and want to do research work as part of their FCPS trainings, but they cannot initiate their own research projects because of many factors, including a lack of research culture.
