How to convert 182*1 struct with 20 fields to 1*1 struct with 20 fields?

I have 20*182 cell which I need to convert to struct. By using cell2struct command I am getting 182*1 struct but I want 1*1 struct.

Remember that for-loops are allowed in Matlab and that they are fast enough.
If this is an cell2struct exercise, please provide an 5x3 example with input and output.
I prefer some data that I can copy&paste.
C = num2cell(rand(20,182 ));
This will give you my source data
Are 'ParamXX' or 'NameYY' supposed to be used as field names ?

"This one is very close to what I need. In final answer I need 182*1 double instead of 1*182 double"
Well that's trivially fixed with your existing code by transposing your vector, so by replacing:
S.(data{jj}) = [data{jj,2:end}];
by
S.(data{jj}) = [data{jj,2:end}]';
Or you could do this:
%demo data: %Not sure why we bother about the first row since it's unused
data = [{'Description'}, compose('Name%02d', 1:182);
compose('Parm%02d', (1:20)'), num2cell(rand(20, 182))]
%conversion to structure
newdata = num2cell(cell2mat(data(2:end, 2:end))', 1);
S = cell2struct(newdata, data(2:end, 1), 2)
