Kurt Gödel Colloquium 2008 Announcement
Conference honoring the winners of the Kurt Gödel Centenary Research Prize Fellowships Program The Kurt Gödel Society is proud to announce the conference honoring the winners of the International Research Fellowship Prize Program commemorating Kurt Gödel's 100th birthday. The competition has been organized by the Kurt Gödel Society with support from the John Templeton Foundation. Purpose of the fellowships is to support original research in, and areas surrounding, the foundations of mathematics. These fellowships are intended to carry forward the legacy of Kurt Gödel, whose works exemplify deep insights and breakthrough discoveries in mathematical logic, with profound impact on the philosophy and foundations of mathematics. The selection has been made based upon an open, international competition. An International Board of seventeen eminent Jurors chaired by Professor Harvey Friedman has overseen the process. Applicants were required to submit a curriculum vitae, a research paper, and plans for further research. Seventeen finalists were chosen from among the applicants and their submitted papers will be published in a special issue of the Annals of Pure and Applied Logic. From the finalists, five winners in the categories PreDoc, PostDoc and Senior were chosen to receive USD 120,000.-, USD 160,000.- and USD 120,000.-respectively. We are convinced, that the research of the winners will have had considerable impact on the field of logic and foundations of mathematics forever connected to Kurt Gödel's legacy.
