Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) provides financial support for conducting research and development activities related to Space Science, Space Technology and Space Application in Universities and academic institutions in India. The research program sponsored by ISRO is called RESPOND and its aim is to encourage quality research in the above areas. ISRO-UoP Joint Research Programme started in 1998 with the signing of MOU between ISRO and University of Pune and with the release of funds for the financial year 1998-99. Under this programme, as of now, a total of 125 research projects have been undertaken out of which 104 projects are completed. At the end of the project, Principal Investigator submits the final technical report highlighting the findings of the study. In order to bring the contents of the study to the notice of ISRO Scientists/Engineers, brief details along with summary of findings are published from time to time. Approved research areas for study are listed below:

• Origin of life
