IUPAC Global Women’s Breakfast is an annual event organised by various organizations like Research institutes, High Schools, Universities, Industries, Scientific Publishing houses, Colleges etc. The event is celebrated by IUPAC in conjunction with U.N. Day of Women and Girls in Science. The aim of celebrating this event is to create an active network of people of all genders to establish gender equality in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics). The theme of GWB 2026 is “Many Voices, One Science”. The GWB has been connecting about 2500 events across 100 countries. This year it is going to be celebrated on 10th February in online mode by us under the aegis of ACS and IACT.

The convergence of Generative AI and Human–Robot Interaction (HRI) is ushering in a new era of intelligent, intuitive, and deeply human-centric machine collaboration. As robots become more capable of understanding, creating, and adapting through generative models, their ability to work seamlessly with people is expanding across various domains, including healthcare, manufacturing, education, the creative arts, and everyday assistance. This powerful synergy not only enhances robot autonomy and expressiveness but also opens pathways for richer, safer, and more personalized human–robot partnerships.This workshop brings together researchers, practitioners, and industry leaders to explore the latest breakthroughs, emerging challenges, and future opportunities at this intersection. By fostering a multidisciplinary exchange of ideas, the workshop aims to catalyze innovative frameworks, tools, and collaborations that will define the next generation of human-robot co-creation and interaction.

The online webinar and training program “Advancement in Computational Drug Design (ACDD-2025)”, organized by the Department of Applied Sciences, Indian Institute of Information Technology Allahabad (IIIT Allahabad) from 2nd to 4th December 2025, aims to highlight recent advancements transforming modern drug discovery and development. Esteemed international experts will discuss how computational tools accelerate lead identification, improve pharmacokinetic and ADME properties, and reduce experimental costs.

The DeLTA Winter Internship and Project-Certificate Program aims to nurture the next generation of AI researchers and innovators by fostering creativity, technical expertise, and entrepreneurial vision.
