\nThis prestigious meeting is being held in Lindau, Germany, from June 29 to July 4, where these young scientists are engaging in intellectual discourse with 30 to 40 Nobel Laureates and over 600 researchers from 60 countries, said a news release.
\nIt is noteworthy that the Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences (PIEAS), under the supervision of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission and in collaboration with the Higher Education Commission, has been selecting the best and most capable scholars from across the country for this meeting for the past 22 years.
