Heidelberg Laureate Forum: laureates meet the next generation
The Heidelberg Laureate Forum is an extraordinary opportunity for a group of students and young researchers to interact with some of the greatest minds of Mathematics and Computer Science for a week of scientific exchange and inspiration.
It will bring together winners of the Abel Prize, the ACM Turing Award, and the Fields Medal with young scientists from Computer Science and Mathematics. The first forum will be held over a week in September 2013 in Heidelberg and will consist of presentations, workshops, panel discussions and social events, all of them involving both the laureates and the young scientists. Some travel support is available.
The Forum will invite undergraduate students, PhD candidates, and young researchers at the postdoctoral level. Apply online by submitting a statement of purpose, CV, and the names of 1-3 people who can write recommendations. PhD candidates and postdocs should provide more information on their research. The deadline for applications is February 15, 2013 but may close early if the maximum number of applications that can be reviewed is reached.
