      title = {Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge},
      abstract = {“Traditional knowledge" is employed to mean knowledge,  innovations and practices of indigenous and local  communities embodying traditional life-styles; the wisdom  developed over many generations of holistic traditional  scientific utilization of the lands, natural resources, and  environment. It is generally passed down by word of mouth,  from generation to generation and is, for the most part,  undocumented. Traditional knowledge is valid and necessary,  and awaits its currently relevant wider application for  human benefit. National Institute of Science Communication  and Policy Research (erstwhile NISCAIR), CSIR felt a need  to document the recent developments and the information  bygone in this area in the form of an interdisciplinary  periodical. The Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge  will carry original research papers, review articles, short  communications, etc. concerned with the observation and  experimental investigation of the biological activities of  the materials from plants, animals and minerals, used in  the traditional health-care systems such as Ayurveda,  Siddha, Yoga, Unani, Naturopathy, Homoeopathy,  Folk-remedies, etc. As validation of indigenous claims it  will cover Ethno-biology, Ethno-medicine,  Ethno-pharmacology, Ethno-pharmacognosy & Clinical Studies  on efficacy. Besides, the journal will also welcome  interdisciplinary papers on traditional uses  (non-medicinal) of Indian raw materials of plant, animal  and mineral origin and development of appropriate  technologies for community benefit with specific interest  to the rural areas.},
