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.

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.

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.
