MATH+ Clustersprecher Michael Hintermüller (HU Berlin, WIAS) und Nachwuchsgruppenleiterin Sarah Wolf (FU Berlin) sprechen in der Podcastreihe “Exzellent erklärt” darüber, ob Mathematik die Welt verbessern kann. Sie berichten u.a. über anwendungsorientierte Mathematik bei nachhaltiger Energie und Mobilität, individualisierter Medizin und Verkehrsplanung.

An international and interdisciplinary team, led by MATH+ Professor Max von Kleist, has published new findings on HIV prevention in cisgender women in "Nature Medicine." The study focuses on self-protection using Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), which constitutes a major pillar of HIV prevention.

On November 10, 2023, Priv.-Doz. Dr. Frank H. Lutz passed away unexpectedly at the age of 55. With the passing of Frank Lutz, we lose an excellent researcher, a passionate educator, a loving individual, and for many of us, a very good friend. Our thoughts are with his family in these hours of grief.

MATH+ and the BMS are delighted to announce three new Dirichlet Postdoctoral Fellows who have recently arrived in Berlin to take up their new positions. We welcome Fabian Lehmann, Ioannis Papadopoulos, and Alexandra Wesolek to the MATH+/BMS community and wish them all the best for their two-year postdoc positions.

We invite applications for a Postdoc Position in the Leibniz Junior Research Group “Probabilistic Methods for Dynamic Communication Networks” and for a Research Assistant position in the Research Group “Thermodynamic Modeling and Analysis of Phase Transitions." Both positions are available for MATH+ projects.

MATH+ welcomes Tim Nikolas Jahn and Franziska Eberle as new MATH+ Junior Research Group Leaders (JRGL) for the fields of "Mathematics of Data Science” and “Optimization under Uncertainty." They took up their positions at TU Berlin in October 2023. The JRGLs will build their own research profile and group within the environment of MATH+.
