In der zweiten MATH+ Folge des Podcasts „Exzellent erklärt“ sprechen MATH+ Sprecher*innen Andrea Walther (HU Berlin/ZIB) und Sebastian Pokutta (TU Berlin/ZIB) über die Potenziale anwendungsorientierter Mathematik – insbesondere im Kontext von Nachhaltigkeit und Künstlicher Intelligenz. Die Folge wird ab 1. November als Episode #63 ausgestrahlt.
Im Rahmen der Aktion „Berlin liest ein Buch“ liest Alina Bronsky am 5. November 2025 in der Universitätsbibliothek der TU Berlin aus ihrem Roman „Pi mal Daumen“ – eine berührende Geschichte über eine ungewöhnliche Freundschaft und die verbindende Kraft der Mathematik, die Grenzen zu überwinden
In cooperation with the Einstein Foundation Berlin, the Berlin Mathematical School (BMS) of the Cluster of Excellence MATH+ awards up to four annual prizes for outstanding dissertations. The 2024 MATH+ Dissertation Awards went to Fabian Altekrüger, Svenja Griesbach, Federico Moretti, and Luisa Plato. Congratulations
Im „Decision Theatre“ diskutierten junge Menschen mit Expert*innen über Mobilität mithilfe mathematischer Modelle. Bei einer BUA-Veranstaltung präsentierte MATH+ Sprecherin Andrea Walther aktuelle Forschung. Beim „Exzellenten Pub Quiz“ zeigten Teams ihr Wissen über Berliner Spitzenforschung.
A major success for Berlin’s mathematics community: MATH+ will continue to receive funding for another seven years as part of the Excellence Strategy of the German federal and state governments. The German Research Foundation (DFG) thus recognizes Berlin’s international leadership as a center for innovation
On 12 May 2025, MATH+ celebrates “International Women in Mathematics Day” by introducing the new MATH+ Hanna Neumann Fellows: Monika and Alice Marveggio, who have just arrived in Berlin for their research stays and collaborations at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
A research team around MATH+ Professor Max von Kleist has developed an ultra-fast, reliable, and cost-effective method for barcoding and demultiplexing direct-RNA (dRNA) sequencing data from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) devices—enabling more advanced experimental designs in epi-transcriptome research. These results were published in “Nature Communications”.
The Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics (WIAS), an institute of the Leibniz Association, conducts application-oriented research aimed at solving complex mathematical problems in science and industry. It plays a significant role within MATH+ as one of its five partner institutions. The Leibniz Association's
The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) has named MATH+ Chair Andrea Walther of Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin a 2025 SIAM Fellow in recognition of her contributions to algorithmic optimization and automatic differentiation. Congratulations!
In an interview with MATH+, Jens Eisert (FU Berlin) shares his passion for quantum technology, discusses groundbreaking research in quantum machine learning, and reflects on the future of quantum computing. From collaborations with Google to inspiring young minds, he emphasizes the importance of rigorous science,
