Our medical education system needs to be somehow rejuvenated and streamlined to cope up with all the posing challenges in healthcare system during the current times. While India has shown remarkable improvements and achievements in the medical field since last many years with regard to its delivery of healthcare services to its people, however there is also a crucial need to focus more on biomedical research and invest in it.

Our healthcare workforce is making relentless efforts towards achieving the goal of optimum healthcare delivery despite facing many odds and challenges, however we are somehow lacking in biomedical research field as compared to other nations and very less percentage of qualified professionals are taking interest in it.

To bring advancement in medical research -- our medical professionals being highly capable have an immense role to play and they should get enough motivated towards such works and should be passionate in doing so. Definitely, India emerged as one of the first country's to give vaccine to the world to manage COVID-19 crisis, however there is dire need to learn a lot regarding this subject from nations advancing in medical research and doing highest investment in it.

To foster the robust biomedical research system, there should be higher investment in it from the Government and there is also a need to strengthen and ensure availability of adequate resources and infrastructure to premier healthcare institutions/organizations concerned with the bio-medical research.
