    PRIME MINISTER CONCERNED OVER AGING SCIENTISTS

    YEREVAN, MARCH 12, ARMENPRESS: Armenian prime minister Andranik
    Margarian praised today the work of the National Academy of Sciences
    for its huge activities to present the country to the international
    community. Speaking at the annual meeting of the Academy, the prime
    minister said the government is ready to discuss with scientists ways
    to improve science management and reform the sector, but expressed
    his concerns over the aging staff of universities and research
    institutes.
    One of the ways to improve this situation, according to the prime
    minister, is that all post-graduate and doctoral students should work
    for their alma maters. One of the good news was his announcement that

    from mid-year. The overall staff of Academy-affiliated institutes is
    3,911 people, by 484 fewer than a year ago.
