DIRECTOR MEETS PRESIDENT OF IRAN


ICTP's Director, K.R. Sreenivasan, held an hour-long meeting with Mohammad Kathami, President of Iran, on 13 May. The meeting, which took place at President Khatami's office in Tehran, was attended by Reza Mansouri, Deputy Minister for Research Affairs in the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology (and former ICTP Associate 1988-1994); Seifallah Randjbar-Daemi, head of ICTP's High Energy Physics group; and Giuliano Panza, head of ICTP's Structure and Non-Linear Dynamics of the Earth (SAND) group. President Khatami graciously acknowledged the value of ICTP and its work, and expressed his appreciation for the Centre's contribution to science in Iran. During his week-long trip, the Director also addressed a meeting of Iran's university presidents and travelled to Sri Lanka where he met with ICTP Associates and officials at the Centre for Graduate Studies in Peradenya.
