It is his last chance to win - by the time the next ICM comes around he will be older than 40.’’

 Manjul Bhargava is the R. Brandon Fradd Professor of Mathematics at Princeton University, U.S.A. He earned his A.B. in Mathematics from Harvard University in 1996 and Ph.D. from Princeton University in 2001. He joined Princeton University as a Professor of Mathematics in 2003. He was the first five-year Research Fellow of the Clay Mathematics Institute during 2000-05. His primary research interests lie in number theory, representation theory, and algebraic geometry. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and has received numerous awards, including three Derek Bok Awards for Excellence in Teaching (1993-95), the Hoopes Prize for Excellence in Scholarly Work and Research from Harvard University (1996), the AMS-MAA-SIAM Morgan Prize for Outstanding Undergraduate Research in Mathematics (1997), the MAA Merten M. Hasse Prize for Exposition (2003), a Packard Foundation Fellowship in Science and Engineering (2004), the Blumenthal Award (2005), the SASTRA Ramanujan Prize (2005), which he shared with Prof. Kannan Soundararajan, the AMS Cole Prize for number theory (2008), and the Prix Fermat (2011). He was also the 2011 Simons Lecturer at MIT.

 Joe Gallian, President of the Mathematical Association of America, recalls, Manjul Bhargava is an interesting story. He agreed to come to my REU, but he had
 very close ties to a grandfather in India. There was to be a family reunion in India

 he ended up with a spectacular, completely novel approach. It was in number theory,
 but he had this ingenious ring-theoretic approach. He won a Morgan prize for that’’

 Manjul Bhargava was among the four winners of the 2014 Fields Medal, widely considered the Nobel Prize for Mathematics that has been mostly dominated by white men (Americans, Russians, French, and Britons: 38 medals between them) since it was instituted in 1936.

 Bhargava’s work is based both on a deep understanding of the representations of arithmetic groups and a unique blend of algebraic and analytic expertise.

 One to four Fields Medals are awarded once every four years to mathematicians under the age of 40 years at the International Congres of the International Mathematical Union (IMU), which meets every four years. (Hyderabad hosted it in 2010). Seoul is the venue of the 2014 presentation
