The current issue of the University of Münster’s newspaper "wissen | leben" features a portrait of Prof. Dr. Ho Hai Phung, who is a Humboldt Research Award winner and is currently visiting Mathematics Münster as a Münster Research Fellow. Read the full article to learn more about his research, his path from Vietnam to Münster and his commitment to encouraging the next generation to explore mathematics.

We welcome Elena Demattè as a new Young Research Fellow at Mathematics Münster. She is a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig. Her research interests cover a broad range of problems in partial differential equations and partial integro-differential equations. During her stay until the end of November 2026, she will collaborate with Prof. Dr. Angela Stevens on kinetic equations in the life sciences.

On "Hochschultag Münster", universities and higher education institutions across the city open their doors. Several members of Mathematics Münster willoffer short online lectures, giving prospective students a first insight into what studying mathematics is like: Steffen Dereich, Ralf Schindler and Wilhelm Winter will present topics from their respective fields. At 2:15 pm, there will also be a Q&A session on "Why study mathematics?". Registration is still open.
 

Zum 200. Geburtstag von Bernhard Riemann lädt der Exzellenzcluster Mathematik Münster alle Interessierten zu einer Theateraufführung über das Leben und Werk des außergewöhnlichen Mathematikers ein. Eintritt frei, mit Anmeldung.

The new interview series provides insights into the professional trajectories of former members of Mathematics Münster. The third episode features our former postdoc Amadine Escalier. She works as a "Maîtresse de conférence" at the math department of Lyon 1 University. Find out more about Amandine's research and her time in Münster.

How is artificial intelligence changing mathematical research? Prof. Dr. Thomas Nikolaus, spokesperson of our Cluster of Excellence, explored this topical question in a recent episode of the podcast "IQ – Wissenschaft und Forschung" by Bayern 2. The interview covered the capabilities of AI and the role of humans in mathematics. Listen to the full interview (in German).
