In this age of globalization, the ICTP continues to stem the brain drain of physicists from developing nations while at the same time responding to new scientific challenges.
Juan G. Roederer
The early 1960s were very good years for science in the industrialized world. Both the decision-makers and the public shared a faith in the usefulness and importance of fundamental science, and there was unfaltering trust in the scientific community. Although the world was ideologically split into two camps, science was recognized by nearly everyone as an integral part of human culture and development. However, science did not fare as well in most developing countries, some of which had just gained their independence. The number of scientists active in research in such countries was small. As scientists emigrated to more developed nations, the resulting brain drain delivered serious blows to the scientific communities of those researchers, leaving deep scars in the intellectual fabric of their countries.

http://ebasi.org/ebasi_history.html
Brief History of the Edward Bouchet Abdus Salam Institute (EBASI) The Edward Bouchet Abdus Salam Institute (EBASI) was founded in 1988. Among the objectives of EBASI are [1] to provide a vehicle for scientific and technical collaborations between African and American physical scientists, engineers, and technologists, [2] to enhance the impact of science and technology on the sustainable development of the countries on the African continent, and more specifically [3] to increase the technical manpower pool working in Africa today by facilitating the training of Ph.D. students from African universities. The idea for such a scientific institute came from Prof. Abdus Salam, the late Nobel Laureate and Director of the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), who in 1988 appointed the first EBASI Council. The Institute was named in honor of Edward A. Bouchet, who became in 1876 (Yale) the first African American and the first known person of African descent to earn the Ph.D. degree in Physics. African physicists affiliated with ICTP and the National Society of Black Physicists (USA) organized the Edward A. Bouchet / ICTP Institute. The Council is currently composed of seven African members, seven American members, and two representatives from ICTP. In 1998, the name of the Institute was changed from its original name to its current name in order to honor the late Prof. Abdus Salam.

The Edward A. Bouchet International Conferences Our upcoming conference in Benin is the fourth in a series of conferences that have taken place in the last 13 years. The 1st Edward A. Bouchet International Conference was held 9 - 11 June 1988 at ICTP in Trieste, Italy. It was jointly sponsored by ICTP and Black American Friends of ICTP (a support group created as an implementing vehicle for this activity). The conference was also supported in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF). Nineteen scientific papers were presented. In addition, there were workshops and discussions on the state of physics and mathematics on the African continent, the needs of African and African American graduate students, and methods to establish permanent professional relationships. The conference proceedings were published. The 2nd Edward A. Bouchet International Conference was held 14 - 17 August 1990 at the University of Ghana - Legon in Accra, Ghana. It was jointly sponsored by ICTP, NSF, and the Ghanaian government, as well as the MacArthur and Rockefeller Foundations. The conference was hosted by the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences and by the Society of African Physicists and Mathematicians (SAPAM). Twenty-one invited papers and thirty-one contributed papers were presented in various topical areas of physics, engineering, and mathematics. Over 150 participants registered for the conference, representing fifteen African countries from the western, central, and southern regions. Twenty-seven of the conference participants were from America.

*Farewell to Abdus Salam
Professor Muhammad Abdus Salam, member of the South Commission from Pakistan, died on 21st November 1996, at the age of 70. Nobel Prize winner in Theoretical Physics, he was internationally famous for his intellectual achievements but, especially in the South, also as the founder and leader of the Third World Academy of Sciences and a leading champion of the role of Science and Technology in development. Being on the South Commission broadened but did not add much to his fame; it did make a lot of difference to the Report of the Commission. Abdus Salam was committed to two things: to Science; and to the development of the countries of the South. From the first meeting of the Commission, the other members learned that, to Professor Salam, the development of South countries depended upon their giving first priority to Science. Whatever aspect of development was under discussion, Abdus Salam brought it round to Science and Technology! The emphasis given to Science and Technology in the South Commission's Report The Challenge to the South is thus entirely due to Abdus Salam. That the subject was completely integrated into the Report, rather than being isolated in one or two Chapters, can be attributed in part also to his work in tandem with another Commission Member, Augustin Papic.

Abdus Salam (1926-1996) worked together with Stephen Weinberg to present their joint "Weinberg - Salam Theory "which is the mathematical and conceptual synthesis of electromagnetic and weak interactions. The pair, together with Sheldon Glashow, were awarded the 1979 Nobel Prize for Physics. Salam's contribution to physics also extended across many other fields, including quantum mechanics.
Salam remained actively engaged
in researching elementary particle physics right until his death
Salam graduated from Punjab University in 1946 and received his doctorate from Cambridge University in 1952 for his research into quantum electrodynamics. He taught at Cambridge then moved to the Imperial College in London where we was a lecturer in theoretical physics.
Salam contributed to the foundation of the International Center for Theoretical Physics (a UNESCO organization that is also a branch of the International Atomic Energy Agency) and he served as director of the center from 1964. Salam also served on the U.N. conference for the peaceful use of atomic energy, while remaining at the forefront of elementary particle physics research, especially with his support of the Super String Theory.

The tribute concludes with a brief anecdote: "I recall a young student approaching Abdus Salam for advice on this ethical dilemma: "Professor Salam, these calculations confirm most of the arguments I have been making so far. Unfortunately, there are also these other calculations which do not quite seem to fit the picture. Should I also draw the reader's attention to these at the risk of spoiling the effect or should I wait? After all, they will probably turn out to be irrelevant." In a response which should be immortalized in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, Salam replied: "When all else fails, you can always tell the truth".

Dear Mr. Hislop, Many thanks for having the courage to publish the fact that the mullahs excommunicated the greatest scientist that the Islamic world has ever produced, the 1979 Nobel Laureate for Physics - Professor Abdus Salam, the Director of The International Centre for Theoretical Physics. He kindly gave me an official grant from the Centre. You will see that his obituary appears in the magazine Frontier Perspectives: The Center for Frontier Sciences at Temple University in the USA. Spring/Summer 1997. By coincidence this is the very edition that published Ron Pearson's discovery of the so-called spirit world - 'Consciousness as a Sub-Quantum Phenomenon'. This is the greatest scientific discovery in the history of mankind because it effects every person on Earth. We are all going to die and we have all lost loved ones. Needless to say this revolutionary discovery is taking a while to get off the ground for obvious reasons. It means the total collapse of all the supernatural religions and every scientific textbook will have to be rewritten. The scientific model of the universe as taught in all universities is incorrect. This evening Ron Pearson is giving his Black Hole lecture at Bath University. He replaces Einstein's outdated Theory of Relativity and the other scientific sacred cow, the Big Bang theory. Mohammed had exactly the same experience as I did during a scientific experiment. A person from the etheric (spirit) world materialised and hugged him. We can now understand why our ancestors thought something supernatural had happened. Nothing happened yesterday in the laws of physics that does not happen today. When I was hugged by an etheric person, as a raging sceptic, I beavered away looking for a rational scientific explanation. I found this explanation when I met Ron Pearson in 1988. His mathematics matched the experiment. I bet you are glad I didn't start another one-god religion!

Physics Salam, Abdus Salam, Abdus (January 29, 1926 - ; India) Abdus Salam is a Pakistani nuclear physicist who has the distinction of being the first and only Pakistani to have been awarded a Nobel Prize for Physics which he coreceived with Steven Weinberg and Sheldon Lee Glashow in 1979. The research that led to the Nobel Prize involved the formation of a theory that involved the electromagnetic interaction and weak interaction of elementary particles. Born in Jhang Maghiana, Punjab, India, Salam's education involved attendance at Government College at Lahore (now Pakistan). Following Government College, Salam attended the University of Cambridge where he received his Ph.D. in both mathematics and physics in 1952. Upon the completion of his degree, Salam went back to Government College to take up a position as mathematics professor, a position he held until 1954. At that point, Salam returned to the University of Cambridge where he lectured in mathematics. Three years later, Salam became a professor of theoretical physics at the Imperial College of Science and Technology in London. Finally, in 1964, Salam moved to Italy and held the position as director of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (Britannica, 10:347, 1994; and Barba, p. 67, 1995).

Abdus Salam Suggests International Science Center
By None Date: FEBRUARY 08, 1988
Paris - The founder of the International Center for Theoretical Physics has called for extending the concept to other disciplines and eventually creating an International Center for Science. Abdus Salam has proposed a loose federation of new and existing international bodies that would study basic and applied science and science technology problems of interest in the developing world. (For an interview with Salam, see page 20.) The group would include the ICTP in Trieste as well as new or existing centers for genetic engineering and biotechnology, high "technology and material sciences,chemistry and earth sciences. The center would be an independent organization under the auspices of the Italian government, UNESCO or another United Nations agency, he said. The Third World Academy of Science, which he helped to found in 1985, would play a crucial role. Salam suggested that the new center could be supported by contributions from governments, other international agencies, private foundations and industry. The high technology and material sciences lab would require an annual budget of $15 million to $20 million when fully operational, he esti mated, with smaller amounts needed to run the other labs. Salam discussed his idea in advance of a four-day meeting of 76 Nobel laureates invited here to discuss issues facing the next century. Their topics ranged from human rights and disarmament to development economics and the control of new technologies.
