IISER Kolkata is going to organise the third School and Workshop on Statistical Methods and Deep Machine Learning in High Energy Physics and Astrophysics. It is going to have a pre-school (online) from May 12 - May 30, 2025 and the main school (offline) from June 30 - July 12, 2025. We invite applications from registered students (PhD/MS level) doing research in any of the Indian Universities/Laboratories/Institutes in the field of High Energy Physics or Astrophysics. The activities will bring together experts from different research communities. Experts from many major groups like LHC, B-Physics, neutrino physics, QGP, LIGO, and dark matter physics would come together on a common platform to exchange ideas, start joint projects, and develop a cooperative training program for young professionals working in this broad research domain.

A two-day workshop on “Correlated Quantum Matter” is to be held in IISER Kolkata between 18-19 April 2024. The workshop would bring together leading practitioners of quantum condensed matter physics from the country and abroad to discuss the latest developments in the field.

Correlated quantum many-body systems have played an important role in our understanding of fundamental phenomena in nature from symmetry breaking to topological phases of matter. Emergent properties in these systems have led to diverse phenomena from superconductivity to spin liquids to the quantum hall effect. Correlated quantum matter is also intrinsically tied to the development of modern quantum technologies like quantum computing, quantum sensing, etc. In this context, this workshop will not only lead to a discussion on this timely topic, but it would also be a great opportunity for students and postdocs of IISER Kolkata to be exposed to the frontline research topics in this field.

Among other speakers, Prof. Mohit Randeria and Prof. Nandini Trivedi of Ohio State University, USA, will participate in the workshop and each of them will deliver a DPS colloquium (on 18 and 19 April 2024), which will also be a part of this workshop. We hope that our PhD students, postdocs, and colleagues, particularly those working in the broad area of condensed matter physics, will benefit from the informal academic discussions throughout this workshop.
