Welcome to
Group to Advance Physics Research and Education in the Philippines Founded
A group of young physicists and educators successfully founded the Physics Research Group with the theme "Advancing Physics Research and Education for National Progress" at Crystal Inn, Tibanga, Iligan City last October 29, 2005.
Organized by the Preparatory Committee headed by Mr. Kim Gargar, former Physics Department Chairman of Mindanao Polytechnic State College (MPSC), the Founding Assembly gathered 22 active and new members of the group which is formerly known as Mindanao Physics Research Group. Members came from Iligan, Cagayan De Oro, Davao, Cotabato, and Marawi. Among them were Mr. Hermogenes Gooc, the former Physics Department Chairman of Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT), and Mr. Ruelson Solidum, former Chairman of the then-Department of Natural Sciences in MPSC and a founding member of the original group.
Outstanding Young Scientist awardee and Samahang Pisika ng Visayas at Mindanao (SPVM) President Dr. Angelina Bacala graced the event by giving an inspirational message (see related story).
Finally, after the ratification of the Constitution and the induction of Executive Committee members, a General Program of Action was discussed. PRG Members vowed to contribute to the advancement of physics research and education in the Philippines and to the progress of the country in any way possible.
