Prof. Hardev Singh Virk, a pioneer in interdisciplinary research in India, has been honoured with FRAY International Sustainability Award for his ground-breaking research in irradiating minerals, glasses, polymers and other insulators using heavy ion beams. His outstanding contributions to understanding the health hazards by measuring Radon concentration in air, soil and groundwater and earthquake prediction in the Himalayas have led to the development of applications for sustainable development of the region.

Fray International Sustainability Award was conferred to Prof. Virk by Dr. Florian Kongoli, the Chair of the symposium and President of SIPS 2022, The Sustainability Through Science and Technology/Sustainable Industrial Processing Summit, held in Phuket, Thailand, from 27 Nov. to 1 Dec. 2022. The award ceremony, held on 29 November 2022, was attended by many eminent international scientists, CEOs, and nine Nobel Laureates.

Given Prof. Virk’s excellent contributions to science and technology, Virk International Symposium on Physics, Technology & Interdisciplinary Research for Sustainable Development was also organized as part of SIPS 2022, in which twenty eminent scientists presented their research findings.
