Dr. Qayyum Zafar participated in an International Technical Training Course.
Dr. Qayyum Zafar participated in “International Technical Training Course on Vacuum Applications in Applied Surface Science” at the COMSTECH Secretariat, Islamabad held on (October 24 – 26, 2023).
The training was Jointly Organized by OIC – COMSTECH and Pakistan Vacuum Society, in collaboration with International Union for Vacuum Science Technique and Applications (IUVSTA). The 03-day training course aimed to provide young scientists, researchers and technologists an opportunity to interact with eminent and specialists working in the field of Vacuum & Surface Science to explore the latest trends and modern applications in this area. It also helped to develop expertise in the allied fields of Vacuum Technology like thin film, material characterization & nanotechnology to introduce modern concepts in surface science industry.
The event had participants from Guyana, Iran, Cameroon, Indonesia, Sudan, Kazakhstan, Northern Cyprus, Malaysia, Mauritania, and Pakistan. Two hundred participants from Pakistan and OIC member states also attended the event in person and online.
