Young scientists as a social and professional community play an important role in modern research and innovation systems. In general, based on a survey of personal formalized interviews and in-depth interviews a holistic view of the status and career of young scientists, an understanding of how young researchers can succeed and contribute to the development of the country’s scientific landscape, and the obstacles they face in this is presented.
