Computing for Social Good
Abstract: Much of the fundamental research in computer science has been driven by the needs of those attempting to utilize computing for various applications, such as health or climate. Given the remarkable growth in computational capabilities, computing hardware, and development tools, Dr. Patel will discuss how more than ever computing is playing a critical role in social good. He we will highlight examples of how computing is driving new scientific discoveries across multiple disciplines in the hope to inspire rising computing researchers to think about how they can tie their work to impactful applications.
The 9th Heidelberg Laureate Forum took place from September 18–23, 2022. #HLF22
The Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) is an annual networking conference where 200 carefully selected young researchers in mathematics and computer science spend a week interacting with the laureates of the most prestigious awards in their disciplines: the Abel Prize, ACM A.M. Turing Award, ACM Prize in Computing, Fields Medal, IMU Abacus Medal and Nevanlinna Prize.
