News

• Simone Warzel wins Young Scientist Award by IUPAP: The International Union of Pure and Applied Physics honoured Simone for her ``outstanding results in analysis of problems motivated by condensed matter physics, in particular, spectral and dynamical properties of random Schroedinger operators''.
• Bernd Schmidt wins Richard Von Mises Prize 2009: The Prize is annually awarded by GAMM (Gesellschaft für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik) for excellent scientific achievements in the area of applied mathematics and mechanics. Bernd's award is ``in appreciation of his research on ... plates and multilayer structures by combining methods of weak convergence and relaxation with ... atomistic approaches''. The actual handover of the prize (and money!) is captured here.
• New Junior Professor: Bernd Schmidt, formerly postdoc in our group, has been appointed to a Junior Professorship in Applied Mathematics.
• IMA Annual Program 2008/09 MATHEMATICS AND CHEMISTRY: Gero Friesecke is co-organizing a workshop on Development and analysis of multiscale methods (IMA, Minneapolis, USA, November 3-7, 2008). For further information and how to apply for participation see here .
• New W2 professor: Simone Warzel (formerly Princeton, USA) joined us on September 1, 2008.
• John Ball's 60th birthday conference: Fotos and talks from this memorable event in June honouring Sir John M. Ball FRS on the occasion of his 60th birthday can be found here .
