Centre for Theoretical Physics was founded in 1964, by the late Nobel Laureate Abdus Salam
¨ receives the majority of its funding
from the Italian government and is administered by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
¨ The ICTP has the mandate
¨ to foster the growth of advanced research in physics and
mathematics, especially among researchers from developing countries
¨ to create an international forum for the exchange of scientific
information through courses, workshops and seminars
¨ “Scientific Thought is the common heritage of
mankind”
¨ In its campus ICTP ¨ accommodates on average 400 scientists each
day
¨ houses one the largest libraries in the field of
physics and mathematics in Europe, with more than 64,000 books, 400 printed journals and more than 3,500 e-journals
¨ The ICTP hosts more than 6,000 scientists each
year
¨ +50 training activities per year ¨ More than 120,000 visits since 1964 ¨ 60% from developing countries ¨ 40% from developed countries ¨ 180 nations represented
¨ ICTP is an institution run by a few scientists for the
benefit of many
¨ Applied physics (AP) ¨ Condensed matter and
statistical physics (CMSP)
¨ Earth system physics (ESP) ¨ High energy, cosmology and
astroparticle physics (HECAP)
¨ Mathematics (Math) ¨ ICTP-INFN Laboratory (Mlab)
¨ Provide reliable and sustainable
wireless solutions to help foster science and research in Developing Countries.
¨ Organize training activities on
state-of-the-art wireless technologies.
