Otmar Scherzer has been featured in “scilog” – the magazine of the Austrian Science Fund FWF – with a video presentation encompassing the SFB Tomography Across the Scales.
Simon Hubmer Receives the EAIP Young Scientist Award

Every two years the Eurasian Association on Inverse Problems (EAIP) awards scientists under the age of forty for particular merits in inverse problems analysis and its applications.
We are proud to announce that Simon Hubmer has received this award in 2022.
With this, he follows Peter Elbau, who has received the award previously in 2020.
@the Austrian Science Festival
On May 20, 2022 Ekaterina Sherina, Simon Hubmer, and Axel Kittenberger presented the SFB Tomography Across the Scales at the Austrian Science Festival: “Lange Nacht der Forschung“. To make tomography tangible we showcased our “optical DIY tomograph” described in Computed Origami Tomography.



SIAM Recognizes Gabriele Steidl’s Distinguished Work

Gabriele Steidl (PI of Sub-project Motion Detection in Tomography and Microscopy) became SIAM Fellow 2022.
She is recognized for her outstanding contributions to computational harmonic analysis and imaging sciences.
Additionally she became Editor in Chief of SIAM Imaging on January 1, 2022.
Workshop: “Tomographic Reconstructions and their Startling Applications”
We are inviting to the Workshop “Tomographic Reconstructions and their Startling Applications” at the Erwin Schrödinger Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI) from March 15 until March 26. Due to the current restrictions, the conference will be held as an online event.
The workshop is organized within this SFB research program and is centered around the mathematical and experimental problems related to the applications studied in this project, involving adaptive optics, optical coherence tomography, photoacoustics, and superresolution imaging.
Peter Elbau Receives the EAIP Young Scientist Award

Every two years the Eurasian Association on Inverse Problems (EAIP) awards scientists under the age of fourty for particular merits in inverse problems analysis and its applications.
We are proud to announce Peter Elbau has been selected with Joonas Ilmavirta to receive this award in 2020!
Laser, Lightning and Thunder
On the 16th of July 2019 SFB coordinator Otmar Scherzer explained in the widely read newspaper “Kronenzeitung” within the weekly column “Krone der Wissensschaft” the general principles of tomography and in of particular photoacoustic tomography. The article is available in print only, but can be acquired here.

Description
Inverse problems require to determine the cause from a set of indirect observations. Such problems appear in medical imaging, non destructive testing of materials, computerized tomography, source reconstructions in acoustics, computer vision and geophysics, to mention but a few. The 21st century is the golden age of computer imaging: Measurement devices have become enormously powerful and huge amounts of data are recorded at every eye glimpse. Moreover, computer technology has developed to such a high degree of efficiency that the evaluation of such an enormous amount of data has become possible *if* adequate mathematical and computational tools are used.Recently, the community has been exposed to fundamentally new mathematical models (such as learning), which stimulated exciting theoretical developments and new computational algorithms for solving complicated large scale inverse problems. This workshop will survey modern and identify new mathematical and computational developments for tackling such problems.
more detailsOtmar Scherzer receives the 2018 EAIP award
The Eurasian Association on Inverse Problems (EAIP) is a non-governmental organization working to ensure a coordination between inverse problems research groups and scientific schools in Eurasian countries, by providing international conferences, meetings and summer schools on inverse problems, both in theory and applications.
The association has established an “EAIP Award” to recognize outstanding scientific contributions to the field of inverse problems and continuous efforts to foster cooperation between researchers of Eurasian countries.
