HYDERABAD, Feb. 26

COLLABORATION between France and India has come a long way especially in groundwater research and the two Governments have agreed to set up laboratories, one real and another virtual, to promote research and exchange information through various sources including the Internet, said Dr P. Chossat, Science Counsellor in the Embassy of France in Delhi.

He told newspersons here that a research unit for the study of sub-soil systems would be set up at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. For management of waterways, a centre would be set up in Delhi as a joint venture of the IIT and the French Government.

He said that a cyber university would be set up at IISc with Indo-French collaboration. Biotechnology, environmental science and disaster management were the other areas in which joint studies would be conducted.
