EXPLORING SPACE: A Space & Military Intelligence Learning Experience

Join us June 9-13, 2025, in Washington, DC, for a week filled with community building and “good, old-fashioned family fun” – complete with uncomfortable conversations, games of capture the flag, and leading the quantum revolution. Summer camp is about learning from new experiences and growing together to become better humans.

We will have activities for the whole family; however, the week is geared towards helping individuals 13-25 years old begin their journey into the future with a Competency-based Portfolio built for a future in quantum intelligence, ethical social engineering, and sustainable globalization (or similar fields) to support the workforce needs of the future. The Competency-based Curriculum and Supplemental Learning Activities are meant to enhance the public schooling experience and teach open-source research techniques that will aid students in their learning journey.

Academic Exchange and Student Conference on Advancements in Physics (AESCAP)

The student organization LC Delhi, representing the Member Committee India under the International Association of Physics Students (IAPS), is proudly presenting the Academic Exchange and Student Conference on Advancements in Physics (AESCAP). This four-day event will take place from April 9th to 12th, 2025, in Delhi. Hosted by Delhi Technological University and Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College (University of Delhi), AESCAP aims to engage undergraduate and master’s students, both national and international. The conference is expected to attract up to 200 participants, providing a platform for academic exchange and discussions on the latest advancements in quantum science and physics.

The event will focus on the rapidly evolving field of quantum computing, quantum information, and their applications. The program will cover foundational topics such as the basics of qubits, quantum computing, quantum information, introduction to quantum gates, as well as hands-on workshops for using Qiskit and quantum CCD techniques. It will also explore India’s quantum future, quantum cryptography, and the role of AI and machine learning in academia and society. We will also have famous science communicators to discuss our quantum future and discuss the importance of science communication. Beyond technical discussions, the event will address broader global challenges and initiate conversation on important topics through panel discussions on women in physics and climate change.

The event would also feature student talks and poster presentations, as well as fun interactive social events to provide networking opportunities for the attendees. It promises to be an engaging platform for learning, collaboration, and envisioning the future of quantum technology.

Chemistry Seminar: Sivanujan Suthaharan

Sivanujan Suthaharan, a master’s student from Illinois State University Department of Chemistry, will present a seminar titled “Molecular Self-Assembly: A Lego Movie Through the Lens of Quantum Mechanical Simulations” at 3 p.m. on Friday, March 7, 2025, in Julian Hall, room 225. Refreshments will be served prior to the seminar in Julian Hall, room 224.

European Researcher’s Night Slovakia

European Researcher’s Night is the biggest science festival in Slovakia, and it brings news from the world of research and innovation in an inspiring and unique way.

The festival is traditionally held on the last Friday of September in Bratislava, Košice, Banská Bystrica, Žilina, Poprad, and other accompanying locations. The day-long program (9 am to 11 pm) offers a series of scientific presentations, discussions, experiments, workshops, technological attractions and so much more!

What 2025 holds

The scientific community is increasingly confronting the limitations of traditional predictive models and linear approaches in analyzing complex systems. Chaos, once understood as a synonym for disorder, is now seen as an inherent property of dynamic processes, where sensitivity to initial conditions and nonlinearity determine their evolution. Instead of perceiving uncertainty as an obstacle, we can interpret it as a catalyst for scientific discoveries and technological innovations.

Last year’s theme of complexity highlighted the interdisciplinary connections in research. This year, as part of the Night of Science, we will explore chaos as a fundamental mechanism of adaptation, evolution, and transformation in various systems. The event will open discussions on how scientific disciplines approach uncertainty and nonlinearity and what paradigmatic shifts these phenomena imply.

Quantum Physics and Chaos: Uncertainty as an Epistemological and Technological Imperative

At the quantum level, uncertainty is a fundamental property of systems. Quantum fluctuations, state superposition, and wave function collapse challenge classical notions of predictability and deterministic understanding of reality. Quantum physics thus provides a natural link between chaotic phenomena and the emergence of new orders, where uncertainty becomes a source of technological innovations.

The International Year of Quantum Science and Technology 2025 offers a unique opportunity to explore the relationship between chaotic processes and quantum mechanics. Quantum algorithms utilize chaotic behavior to solve nonlinear problems, while quantum communication protocols introduce new standards of security and efficiency in information transmission.

Chaos in Nature and Society: Mechanisms of Stability and Transformation

In natural systems, chaos does not merely represent entropy but also stabilization and emergent organization. From climate processes and ecosystem interactions to neural networks and evolutionary mechanisms – nonlinear dynamics lead to the formation of self-organizing structures and adaptive strategies.

Similar principles apply to social and technological systems. Financial markets, digital networks, and information ecosystems exhibit chaotic behavioral patterns, where even minimal perturbations significantly influence global outcomes. This presents challenges for modeling, regulating, and managing complex systems.

Night of Science 2025 will offer an interdisciplinary perspective on the connection between chaos, quantum technologies, natural phenomena, and social dynamics. We will explore how uncertainty shapes innovation processes and what epistemological and technological implications we can extrapolate for a better future. Chaos is not just a challenge – it represents a potential key to new scientific paradigm shifts.

Omnicane Award 2025

This is an annual inter-college competition open to all secondary colleges in the Republic of Mauritius. This competition, sponsored by Omnicane Foundation through its Corporate Social Responsibility engagement, was established in 1971 and enables students each year to submit their project on a theme of national and international interest. Thus, each year, some 300 students (in teams of 5 students each) submit their projects based on research work, interviews, and discussions.

We have each year a competent independent jury panel chosen in relation to the theme who evaluate some 60 projects received before preselecting shortlisted teams who are invited to make an oral presentation based on which the winner and the two runners-up are awarded. To celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, this year’s theme is about finding innovative solutions for Mauritius’s most pressing challenges as a SIDS: Limited Arable land, vulnerability to climate change, and food security.

We are thus calling on the visionary minds of our youth to explore how quantum science and technology, through data analysis, crop improvement, and sustainable resource management, can help enhance agricultural productivity while promoting sustainability and resilience in our island nation. The project was launched on 10th February 2025, and the submission deadline is the first week of May 2025, while the winners and runner-ups will be announced in August 2025. It is noted that this project competition is endorsed by the Ministry of Education & Human Resources in Mauritius.
