site.btaMath and Computer Science Prize Winners Discuss Climate Change and AI with Young Scientists in Heidelberg
Climate change and artificial intelligence are in the focus of the 11th edition of the Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF), which brings together 25 winners of the most prestigious prizes in mathematics and computer science with young scientists in Heidelberg, Germany. The forum opened officially on September 22 and will be on until September 27.
During the ongoing week, 200 young researchers in mathematics and computer science are exchange ideas and experiences with laureates of the Abel Prize, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Turing Award, the ACM Prize in Computing, the Fields Medal and the Abacus Medal (formerly the Nevanlinna Prize).
The participating young mathematicians and computer scientists from around the world are selected for the HLF through а competition. In Heidelberg, they have an opportunity to present projects they are working on in a condensed poster format, and to have them critiqued by the most distinguished professionals and researchers in the field.
The programme includes presentations, discussions and informal talks.
The main themes of this year's Forum will be the focus of two of the discussions: Understanding the Climate Crisis, and The Paradox of Artificial Intelligence.
The Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation organizes the event every year. The Foundation was established and is funded by the Klaus Tschira Stiftung, which promotes and supports the natural sciences, mathematics and computer science. HLF's scientific partners are the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Research and the University of Heidelberg. The HLF is supported by ACM, the International Mathematical Union and the Norwegian Academy of Sciences.
