TLDR: Attention young researchers in Computing from India and across the world! Call for participation is open for ACM India Pingala Interactions in Computing (PIC). Interact with eminent award laureates and fellow researchers during PIC'24 on 3-6 February 2024, hosted by Infosys at Mysore Campus. Get all the details and apply via https://event.india.acm.org/pic. Seats are very limited for this (almost) all-expense-paid, prestigious research networking event, so rush in your applications.
ABOUT PINGALA INTERACTIONS IN COMPUTING (PIC)
ACM India Council is pleased to announce the launch of its flagship research networking event “Pingala Interactions in Computing (PIC)”. PIC will bring together some of the best minds in Computing over four days annually to network in an interactive and immersive atmosphere and promote scientific exchange of the highest quality.
Named after Pingala, ancient Indian mathematician and the creator of Binary Numeral System, PIC will comprise about 50 young Indian and international researchers combined, interacting with eminent laureates in Computing, to derive inspiration and motivation from role models and peers, and exchanging their research ideas within this elite company. The presence of eminent laureates and participants selected after a highly competitive selection process promises to make it one of the most sought after and respected networking events for young Computing researchers organized in India. Inspired by the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings and the Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF), PIC is created with a distinct Indian differentiation to provide a relaxed but concentrated environment as a starting point of a sustained interaction, paving way for significant results in the medium term.
LAUREATES
ELIGIBILITY AND SELECTIONS
The participants will comprise 50 young researchers from India and abroad, carefully selected by an eminent jury. Students currently enrolled in PhD program in a Computing discipline (thesis topic identified) and active professional researchers (from academia or industry) with successful PhD defense date on or after 1st January 2019 will be eligible to apply as young researchers. For international applicants, Bachelors degree cannot be from India. The India-international split of participants will be 50-50 by design, and while selecting the participants within the two categories, we will be seeking parity in industry-academia, gender and geography.
TRAVEL SUPPORT
ACM, we will provide travel support for the participants, up to $1200 for the international participants and up to Rs 16000 for the Indian participants to supplement what they cannot obtain from other sources such as their institution or organization. The board and lodging will also be covered by the event, serving it as an incentive for prospective applicants without worrying about the financial aspects of participation in this forum.
