Nature is a source of inspiration for the mathematician. That was a key message of the Fields Medal winner Alessio Figalli's honorary lecture on Monday. ETH Zurich celebrated the Italian's outstanding achievement with his PhD supervisors Luigi Ambrosio and Cédric Villani in attendance and held a debate about the growing scientific and economic significance of mathematics.

Shu Li successfully passed her oral doctoral thesis examination entitled: "Estimating causal effects from time series". Congratulations!
