14× faster3 institutes9 papers
An indigenous superconducting testbed cuts time-to-insight for molecular design pipelines.
The challenge
India's research community has long needed shared access to high-end instrumentation. Bridging the gap between availability and demand requires a digital backbone like I-STEM.
The approach
By coordinating cross-institutional booking and pairing teams with the right mentors, the project executed reproducible experiments in a fraction of the typical timeline.
The outcome
Measurable national impact — captured in publications, prototypes, patents and downstream funding committed to the programme.
