MATTER OF GREAT PRIDE FOR INDIAN SCIENCE!

Ashoke Sen becomes the first Indian to win the prestigious Oskar Klein Medal (2026), jointly  awarded by Stockholm University and the Nobel Committee for Physics of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for his pioneering work in String theory.

https://t.co/dCJ1D9DVDs

String theory gives a unified description of all matter and the forces between them based on the postulate that the elementary constituents of matter are tiny one dimensional (string-like) objects instead of point particles. Sen’s breakthrough work has shown that multiple string theories are all different versions of a single underlying theory.

Incidentally, I met Ashok Sen for the first time, when both of us were elected  as FRS (Fellows of Royal Society) in 1998. Ashoke ( nominated by Stephen Hawking himself) was young 42 yrs and
I was an oldie - 55 yrs though!

What struck me was Ashoke’s  incredible simplicity. His wife Sumathi Rao has reportedly said that Ashoke bought his first suit and needed some assistance to wear his first tie for that prestigious 1998 FRS ceremony in London, when one signs in the same book that Sir Isaac Newton has signed.

A film made on the life and work of Ashoke Sen, when we at the
H K Firodia Award in Science & Technology honoured him in 2005 in Pune, will inspire all our budding scientists - showing how science & simplicity goes together.

We all feel so so proud Ashoke!

Curiosity and tenderness are rare together. When they meet, you’re usually in the presence of someone special.

Pune International Centre marked its 16th Foundation Day with an evening of reflection, ideas and conversations about the road ahead.

The programme opened with remarks by Dr. Raghunath Mashelkar (@rameshmashelkar), President, PIC, followed by a look back at 15 years of PIC by Prashant @Girbane, General Secretary, PIC.

The evening then moved towards PIC’s future — with the launch of the new Pune International Centre video, followed by Dinanath Kholkar (@dinakholkar), Director, PIC, sharing the Centre’s priorities for the year ahead. Dr. Nitin Kareer, Trustee, PIC, shared an update on the PER Growth Hub project, while Lt. Gen. Dr. Madhuri Kanitkar (Retd.), Convenor, PIC Public Health Research Area, spoke about incubating public health research.

The highlight of the evening was the 16th Foundation Day Lecture by Dr. Abhay Karandikar (@karandi65), Member, NITI Aayog, on “Transforming India’s Science and Technology Ecosystem towards Viksit Bharat 2047.”

Dr. Karandikar spoke about India’s growing capabilities in science, technology and innovation, while highlighting the need to democratise research, translate research into commercialised products, and encourage greater private-sector investment in cutting-edge R&D. He also touched upon emerging opportunities in AI and deep tech, space, biomanufacturing and quantum technologies, along with the need to prepare for an ageing population and strengthen the focus on preventive healthcare.

The evening concluded with an engaging Q&A, felicitation of the guest, a vote of thanks by Dr. Vijay Kelkar, Vice President, PIC, and a group photograph with the PIC team.

As PIC enters its 16th year, the evening brought together many of the ideas and people that continue to shape the Centre — looking back at 15 years, reflecting on the work underway, and looking ahead to the possibilities that lie ahead.

Le jeu de jambes... 😍

La légèreté, les petits pas, la rapidité, c'est une folie !

[Amey @ameyzin]

@paulg have you thought of putting your agent out there that starts with "you know what you could do". I was thinking of something and wondered what PG would think of this idea.

[a16z @a16z]

AI has collapsed the cost of building products, but not the cost of knowing what to build.

- The old loop: spec, scope, build
- The new loop: build, play, design, ship

Prototypes are cheap. Great products still require taste, judgment, and a clear understanding of what users actually need.

 Just welcomed Mangal Murti at our home.👇

 Right from my childhood, I have been eagerly awaiting great celebration of Ganesh Chaturthi for five days at our home

 May he bless us with purity of thought and purpose, guiding us on the path of compassion, courage & commitment to achieve collective well being of ALL the humanity.

 Wishing you all a joyous and spiritually enriching Ganesh Chaturthi!

[Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt]

A bat was never just a piece of equipment for me.

I knew how I wanted it to feel in my hands, down to the smallest detail. So I’d often bring out my carpentry kit and work on it myself, shaping and adjusting it until it felt right.

I suppose that’s why I remember those little moments so fondly. They were never really about the bat. They were about making it my own.

[Amey @ameyzin]

The compounding effect of any consistent effort is amazing. Below is a graph that shows how the big three achieved their slams after 16-19 years of practice - starting with juniors and then even after turning pro

[Raghunath Mashelkar @rameshmashelkar]

This book is a masterclass in ‘solution engineering’ with a stamp of #morefromlessformore and always ahead of time

I read the entire book in ONE SITTING because it is simply UNPUTDOWNABLE.

The inspiring stories reveal the anatomy of an extraordinary innovator—his curiosity, creativity and openness; his ability to observe the ordinary and discover the extraordinary; his courage to challenge accepted wisdom; and, equally importantly, his pragmatism in recognising the realities of the market.

What if I could take my 14-year-old inside companies building complex technology to see how their products work?

That idea became Built in India, a JioGenNext series about deeptech founders building from India for the world.

Our first three stories come from Pune. Teaser 👇
