In 2023, India's share of scientific publications among the world's top 10% cited in developmental biology was notable, serving as a pivotal benchmark for future assessments.
From 2024 onwards, forecasts show a steady increase in India's share, with year-on-year growth observed at approximately 1.76% from 2024 to 2025, maintaining a consistent uptrend through to 2028. On average, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 1.64% is anticipated over the next five years, indicating positive momentum in India's contribution to top-cited developmental biology publications.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Increasing collaboration with international institutions to boost research impact.
- Investments in research infrastructure and talent retention to further elevate citation performance.
