Jean-Pierre Eckmann (UNIGE) joins the list of mentors of our mentoring programme09/09/2020
|
We are glad to inform you that our member Jean-Pierre Eckmann (UNIGE) has joined the list of mentors of our SwissMAP PhD and Postdoc mentoring programme. The programme was launched to support our PhD and Postdoc SwissMAP members and to give them access to the knowledge, skills and expertise of our more senior SwissMAP participants who volunteered as mentors.
Simone defended his PhD thesis on 20th of August 2020, which was entitled "Equivariant intersection theory on the moduli space of rank 2 Higgs bundles".
Open PhD Position (UNIGE, Sonner Group) Deadline on Sep 4, 2020. Job description: Applications are invited for a PhD position in the subjects of High Energy Theory, Holography and String Theory. The PhD position is fully funded for four years and starts at the beginning of 2021.
QuantaMagazine article mentions the work of our member Maryna Viazovska. "How to safely reopen offices, schools and other public spaces while keeping people six feet apart comes down to a question mathematicians have been studying for centuries.".
Professeur à la Section de mathématiques, Anton Alekseev est le premier lauréat de la médaille de l’Institut Erwin Schrödinger pour les mathématiques et la physique (ESI).
We invite you to view the videos which were made especially for our recent SNSF Site Visit which took place online earlier in June.
Congratulations to our members Fiona Seibold and Pierrick Bousseau who have been awarded the 2020 SwissMAP Innovator Prize! 
Beauty of Mathematics is a motivating interview with our member Alessio Figalli (ETH Zurich) in which he describes his path as a mathematician (IT with EN subtitles).
Our member Maryna Viazovska featured on the EPFL Summer Series, Science as a vocation. Discover how Maryna resolved the problem of sphere packing in 8 and 24 dimensions!
Mirage article: "Maryna Viazovska, who holds the Chair of Number Theory at EPFL, has resolved the problem of sphere packing in 8 and 24 dimensions...."
