SAVE THE DATE!

ETH Foundations of Data Science (ETH-FDS) announces the Stiefel Lecture 2020 (postponed) 

delivered by Dan Spielman, Yale University, Irvine, on 

October 7, 2022, 
ETH Zurich, 
HG F 30 at 17:15.

The Stiefel Lecture has been created in honor of Eduard Stiefel (1909-1978) who was professor of mathematics at ETH Zürich. Stiefel has been the driving force for establishing "electronic scientific computing" with ERMETH (Elektronische Rechenmaschine der ETH). This became a landmark in computational and mathematical sciences with a huge impact to a broad range of applications in engineering and natural science. Stiefel has made fundamental and lasting contributions in mathematics, including the introduction of the Stiefel-Whitney classes, the Stiefel manifold and the conjugate gradient method. Stiefel advised 63 PhD students, many of whom became leaders in their field. 

We cordially invite you to attend this Stiefel Lecture. There’s no registration required.

Looking forward to welcoming you at this special event.

With kind regards,

Peter Bühlmann
Director
ETH Foundations of Data Science
