Happy to share our new work https://t.co/HmZmzbWg90 Charge-to-spin conversion typically depends on heavy metals with strong spin–orbit coupling. Here we show unprecedented-high efficiency without it, using newly discovered p-wave magnets. @NatureComms
Grateful to be recognized by @WolfPrize for the composite fermion, and to be in the company of two incredible physicists I greatly admire.
The honor truly belongs to my students, collaborators and numerous other researchers whose brilliant work transformed the composite fermion from an idea to reality.
Looking back, it is hard to believe how incredibly fortunate I have been. Growing up in a poor village in India, traumatized by an accident that left me on crutches with a lifelong disability, I did not think I would ever walk again or attend college, let alone pursue my dream of becoming a physicist. I don’t have words to express my profound gratitude to my family, friends, colleagues, mentors, and even strangers who have helped and supported me at every juncture.
My heartfelt thanks to @ncert for a science scholarship; to @BmvssJaipurFoot for enabling me to pursue higher studies; to Maharaja College @Uniraj_Jaipur, @IITKanpur, @stonybrooku, @condensed_the@UofMaryland, @Yale, @PSUScience@penn_state for taking a chance on me; and to @iiscbangalore, @IISERPune, @TIFRScience, @Infosys Professorship for providing me a home away from home.
Little did I know when the idea of composite fermion first struck me during the Christmas break of 1988 that it would occupy my mind for the next 37 years. My hope is that this prize will motivate the younger generation to experience the beauty of scientific laws and the thrill of discovery.
For their groundbreaking contributions to quantum matter and its technological potential, we are proud to award Jainendra Jain, Moty Heiblum, and James Eisenstein the 2025 Wolf Prize in Physics

I am happy to share that our paper has been awarded the IOP Publishing Top Cited Paper Award India 2024 in the Materials Category. #TopCitedPaperAwards@IOPPublishing
Brilliant paper. An experiment where the entropy goes down most (>90%) of the time. The second law isn't that entropy must increase, but rather that the mean change in entropy must be non-negative, <ΔS> ≥ 0. In theory the entropy can almost always go down, if balanced by occasional large entropy increases.
Off the mark in the medal tally and on the mark with the shooting! Congratulations, @realmanubhaker, on bagging India's first medal at the Paris Olympics.
After overcoming the heartbreak in Tokyo, you have shown immense strength & determination to win a bronze at #Paris2024, and made India proud. 🇮🇳🥉

International Math Olympiad IMO 2024 results are announced. India is at No 4 after USA, China and South Korea. This is the best performance ever by the Indian team. The team was led by Krishnan Sivasubramanian, my colleague at @iitbombay

International Math Olympiad (IMO) is the hardest math test for high schoolers.
—USA beat the favorite China with a mostly Chinese-American team
—India came 4th, 1pt short of Korea
—Haojia Shi [China] got a perfect score 2x in a row, the 7th to ever do that
6 questions, NINE hrs!
It’s a matter of immense joy and pride that India has come 4th in its best-ever performance in the International Maths Olympiad. Our contingent has brought home 4 Golds and one Silver Medal. This feat will inspire several other youngsters and help make mathematics even more popular.
Congratulations to Professor Venkatesan Sundaresan, The 2024 Wolf Prize Laureate in Agriculture!

It’s a very special day for our education sector. At around 10:30 AM today, the new campus of the Nalanda University would be inaugurated at Rajgir. Nalanda has a strong connect with our glorious past. This university will surely go a long way in catering to the educational needs of the youth.
