In this episode of Behind The Science, Fields Medalists, professors (@uzhch & @ethzurich) and members of swissQuant’s Scientific Advisory Board, Dr. Artur Avila & Dr. Alessio Figalli discuss the impact of Fields Medal recognition, their journey toward meaningful research, how math drives technological progress, and much more.
swissQuant is built on a foundation of mathematic and scientific excellence, we are proud to highlight our ties to world-class academics and leading academic institutions.
The Fields Medal, sometimes referred to as the Nobel Prize of mathematics, is awarded every four years by the @InternationalMathematicalUnion to recognise outstanding mathematical achievement for existing work and for the promise of future achievement.
