The Heidelberg Laureate Forum is an annual meeting bringing together winners of the most prestigious scientific awards in Mathematics (Abel Prize, Fields Medal and Nevanlinna Prize) and Computer Science (ACM Turing Award) with a select group of highly talented young researchers. Roughly 200 young scientists from all over the world get the unique opportunity to interact with their scholarly role models during lectures, panels and discussions. At the same time, the up and coming scientists can engage in inspiring and motivating conversations with the laureates during various social events. The Heidelberg Laureate Forum provides a platform for scientific dialogue across generations.
Australian researchers invited to the Forum are encouraged to explore what travel funding is available to them at their home institutions to support their attendance. Information on HLF travel grants is included in their FAQs.
From 2015-2024 AMSI and AustMS provided funding for Australian researchers invited to HLF in the field of mathematics to attend.
