More challenges than just research questions for researchers from so-called developing countries

Many young researchers from so-called developing countries dream of a career in research. But the reality on the field shows that the challenge is not just limited to spending long hours in laboratories or spending days, weeks, months or even years looking for the right answers to research questions. This side of research activities constitutes the suspense that makes research fun, because finally getting results fills the researcher's heart with a sense of satisfaction and joy, and gives him or her pride, no matter what country in the world where they live and perform their research. The disillusioning reality for young people who want to do research in countries classified as developing is mainly the lack of equipment (machines, devices, consumables), the limitation or absence of electrical power or internet connection, the brutality of various charges, the lack of funds to finance their research activities, to name some.

The question is: How do researchers in the above-mentioned countries manage to create strong research groups and produce valid scientific results in such a context?
