The Physics Conclave at IISER Pune is designed to foster meaningful dialogue within the physics community, highlight cutting-edge research, and inspire collaborative efforts. The theme of the event for 2025 is "Contemporary Questions in Physics: The Important & The Interesting". Below are some of the key highlights:

  • Panel Discussions: A dynamic exchange where faculty members from various sub-disciplines explore key research questions, followed by audience interaction.
    • First 10 minutes: A single member presents an overview of the research questions of the panel.
    • Next 30 minutes: Free discussion among panel members regarding the research questions - how and why these questions are important and interesting.
    • Last 20 minutes: An open-floor session where the audience joins the conversation.

  • Poster Presentations: Physics research students showcase their latest work in dedicated poster sessions, fostering the exchange of new ideas and innovations.
