There will also be various interactive elements to foster the exchange between the participants, especially between the Young Researchers and the Laureates. Apart from the scientific program, there will be satellite events, which include virtual exhibitions and a documentary film.
Hot Topic at the Virtual HLF
This year’s Hot Topic session revolves on "eHealth," a theme that is both timely and has decisive ramifications, not only for science but also for society as a whole. A panel of experts from various specializations will discuss its significance, plus the inherent advantages and vulnerabilities.
Farewell to Vaughan Jones
We bid farewell to Vaughan Jones who received the Fields Medal in 1990 for discovering an astonishing relationship between von Neumann algebras and geometric topology and finding a new polynomial invariant for knots and links in 3-space.
farewell to Frances Elisabeth Allen
We bid farewell to Frances Elisabeth Allen, a pioneer in computer science who made fundamental "contributions to the theory and practice of optimizing compiler techniques that laid the foundation for modern optimizing compilers and automatic parallel execution."
