*Invitation to "The ICTP-IBM Brahmagupta AI Prize for Young Scientists 
Ceremony" ***

You are cordially invited to participate in the 2025 "The ICTP-IBM 
Brahmagupta AI Prize for Young Scientists Ceremony" that will take place 
in person on Thursday 10 July 2025 at ICTP, in the Budinich Lecture Hall

The 2025 ICTP-IBM Brahmagupta Artificial Intelligence Prize for Early 
Career Scientists is awarded to *Professor Simon Olsson* of Chalmers 
University of Technology, Sweden, “for his pioneering work on the use of 
Artificial Intelligence methods in molecular simulations, overcoming 
long-standing computational problems in statistical mechanics, with 
translational impact on drug discovery and vaccine design.”

The award honours Indian mathematician and astronomer Brahmagupta, known 
for his important contributions to mathematics. In particular, he was 
the first to consider zero as a number and for introducing negative numbers.
