Congratulations to our group leader Simon Telen on receiving the SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry Agnes Szanto Early Career Prize.
This prestigious award recognizes his groundbreaking contributions to applied algebraic geometry and computational methods in particle physics, particularly through innovative work on Landau discriminants and their applications.
The official prize ceremony will take place during the SIAM Conference on Applied Geometry in July at the University of Wisconsin, USA.
Awarded every two years, the SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry Agnes Szanto Early Career Prize honors one exceptional early-career researcher for distinguished contributions to algebraic geometry and its applications, based on papers published in peer-reviewed English-language journals within the three years preceding the award.
SIAM has now published a blog post highlighting his work and career.
Congratulations to Wilmer Leal! His exploration of the chemical space has earned him the highest honor that can be achieved for a Ph.D. thesis - summa cum laude. We all are incredibly proud!
Heartfelt congratulations to our Max Planck colleague from Leipzig, Svante Pääbo. The director at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology was awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Our former postdoc Georg Martius, who leads the Autonomous Learning Group at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Tübingen, was awarded a Consolidator Grant by the European Research Council (ERC).
Warmest congratulations to our former scientist Martina Hofmanová. She has been awarded the Minkowski Medal by the Deutsche Mathematiker-Vereinigung (DMV).
