On Monday evening, 18 November, Senior Vice President Professor Gerhard Kramer invited all Humboldt Fellows and Humboldt Awardees at TUM, together with IAS Fellows and their TUM hosts, to a Humboldt Reception at the TUM-IAS Faculty Club. 

After an opening speech by Prof. Gerhard Kramer, two Humboldt awardees of the Humboldt Foundation's Carl Friedrich von Siemens Research Award gave insight into their research:

Prof. Dr. Polina Bayvel from University College London and ICCS/ Optical Networks Group, Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering, gave an interesting overview of her research with the title "Maximising the capacity of optical networks - how far have we come and what else can we do?” 

Prof. Dr. Andreas Winter from the Universita Autonoma de Barcelona, Quantum Information Group, offered exciting perspectives of his research "Quantum information: from foundations to 6G". 

After poster presentations by Humboldt Fellows, the evening concluded with a reception and buffet, giving participants the opportunity to exchange ideas and make new contacts in a relaxed atmosphere. Mira Albus from the Humboldt Foundation was a valuable guest for the participants, who clarified questions and discussed ideas.

The evening highlighted the diversity and collaborative spirit of the TUM-IAS community, fostering connections and shared inspiration.
