Ana Caraiani, former Bonn Junior Fellow and Hausdorff Chair at the HCM and now professor of pure mathematics at the Imperial College London, has been awarded the 2025 Ruth Lyttle Satter Prize in Mathematics by the American Mathematical Society (AMS). She has been honored for contributions to arithmetic geometry and number theory: in particular, the Langlands program.

The University of Bonn is once again welcoming a top-notch reinforcement in the shape of mathematician professor László Végh. He has been appointed to a Hertz Chair, which connects up different disciplines at the University of Excellence in a unique way. László Végh will be based in the Transdisciplinary Research Area "Modelling”, where he will help to strengthen the links between different departments in the fields of algorithms and optimization problems in particular. In addition, László Végh is a member of the Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics and the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (HCM).

Lillian Pierce, Bonn Research Chair and member of the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (HCM), has been elected a fellow of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) for her many contributions in the support of women both locally and nationally through the organization of such events as “Re:boot Number Theory”, “A room of one’s own”, and Graduate Research Opportunities for Women (GROW). The Executive Committee of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) has established the AWM Fellows Program to recognize members who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to the support and advancement of women in the mathematical sciences.
