The Simulated Worlds project at the SCC has started the new season. On 26.10.2018 the twelve scholarship holders met for a first meeting. The high school pupils have successfully completed an application process and can now look forward to the next challenges: A total of seven topics from different fields, such as climate research, particle physics or medical technology, are waiting to be researched by the scholarship holders in view of mathematical modelling and with the help of simulations on supercomputers. All participants will devote a year to a particular problem and will be accompanied by scientific staff from the SCC.
