In sum­mer 2023 and winter 23/24, sever­al na­tional and inter­na­tional scien­tists gave guest lec­tures at the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram "Sci­entific Com­puting". The topics ranged from ma­chine learn­ing in car acci­dents to the math­emat­ics be­hind super­con­duc­tors.

With the be­gin­ning of the new year, stu­dents of the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram “Bio­logi­cal Phys­ics” are once more set­ting out for their in-ter­na­tional re­search mod­ule with part­ners at, e.g., UC Irvine and UC Merced.

As part of our pod­cast “Five to Twelve” we con­duct criti­cal dis­cussions on cur­rent top­ics. On 1 De­cem­ber 2023 we met with Dr. Se­bas­tian Ku­bon to talk about the back­ground and con­se­quences of the cur­rent em­ploy­ment prac­tice in sci­ence and #Ich­Bin­Han­na.

Students of the Elite Graduate Program "Translational Neuroscience" gain insights into neuroscientific methods and current research projects at the clinic and the JMU.

At the con­fer­ence "Transla­tional Neu­rosci­ence Au­tumn School 2023", sen­ior ex­perts and young re­searchers from vari­ous fields of neu­rosci­ence pre­sent­ed their latest re­search re­sults.

On 24 No­vem­ber 2023 the annu­al cele­bra­tion of the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram “Software Engi­neer­ing” took place. On this occa­sion 100 at­tend­ants wel­comed the 18th cohort of stu­dents and bid fare­well to the 16th co­hort.

Dr. Mat­thias Caro intro­duces the rele­vance of Bool­ean Fouri­er ana­lyt-ic meth­ods for classi­cal learn­ing theo­ry, dis­cusses ele­ments of quan-tum learn­ing theory and de­velops a framework for the classi­cal veri­fi-ca­tion of quan­tum learn­ing algo­rithms.

Stu­dents of the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram “Sat­ellite Tech­nolo­gy“ at JMU Würzburg at­tend­ed the Small Satel­lite Con­fer­ence 2023 in Ber­lin. The con­fer­ence dealt with the cur­rent politi­cal and tech­nolog­ical status of small satel­lite de­velopment in Ger­many.

On 16 No­vem­ber 2023 Dr. Cor­nel Klein (Sie­mens AG) gave a talk in the spe­cial lec­ture series of the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram “Software Engi­neer­ing”. The topic of the talk were the chal­lenges of the de­velopment of an au­tono­mous re­gional train.

The Get To­gether on 11 No­vem­ber 2023 in the Au­dimax of the TU Mu­nich of­fered new mem­bers the op­por­tunity to get to know the Elite Net­work and each other.
