INYAS was founded by INSA in December 2014 with a vision to promote Science education and networking among Young Scientists. After successfully completing an incubation period of five years, INYAS entered a new phase, since 2020. The journey has been incredible so far with full of experience, new learnings and many achievements. We started our activities with 20 Young Scientists as founding batch members and grew to 116 young, dynamic and committed members contributing towards various objectives of INYAS. This year in the 9th General Body Meeting in Feb. 2024, 30 new members have been inducted in INYAS for a period of five years across various disciplines (Physical Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Biological Sciences, Mathematical Sciences, Medical and Veterinary Sciences, Engineering Sciences, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, and Agricultural Sciences). The INYAS 2024 Membership’s success percentage stands proudly around 7.8%, reflecting the accomplishment of our perpetual efforts to incorporate outstanding talents into our fraternity.
