Other Information

For over five decades, Kadir Gulamov has dedicated his career to advancing physics research, education, and science policy in Uzbekistan and internationally, serving at the highest levels of academic leadership, military strategy, and experimental high-energy physics. As Chairman of the Council of Physicists of Uzbekistan (2017–present) and Chief Scientist at the Physical-Technical Institute, he has spearheaded initiatives to elevate Uzbekistan’s scientific footprint, particularly in multiparticle production research using data from CERN, JINR, FNAL, and other global accelerators. His experimental work on hadron-nucleus and heavy-ion collisions—supported by more than 350 publications (Web of Science H-index: 27; Scopus H-index: 25)—has refined phenomenological models of quantum chromodynamics under extreme energy conditions.


Professor Gulamov’s tenure as State Adviser to the President of Uzbekistan (2005–2006) and Minister of Defense (2000–2005) enabled him to integrate scientific rigor into national policy, overseeing defense strategy, military education, and large-scale research programs. Earlier roles as Chief Scientific Secretary of the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences and Director General of the "Physics-Sun" Association (1988–1999) catalyzed interdisciplinary research in semiconductor physics, material science, and solar energy technologies. His foundational research began at the Institute of Nuclear Physics (1968–1971), where he pioneered studies of pion interactions in bubble chambers, culminating in a PhD from the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences (1980) and a Doctor of Sciences (DSc) degree from JINR Dubna (1983).


Honored as a Distinguished Scientist of Uzbekistan and recipient of the State Prize in Science (1992), he continues to foster global collaboration as a Fellow of the Islamic World Academy of Sciences and as a member of the Council of the Asia-Pacific Physical Societies. Professor Gulamov bridges Central Asian science with international partners, advocating for evidence-based policy and quantum gravity research. His career embodies a dual commitment: pushing the frontiers of particle physics while ensuring that science serves societal progress.
