Opening lecture &quot;Computer Modeling to Save the World&quot;We start our anniversary celebration with a dedicated public lecture by Frans Saris, the Dean of our Faculty during the early years of our program.He will address three alarming crises: energy and climate, biodiversity and food, peace and security, which according to some may lead to the Sixth Extinction. His computer modelling shows that humans should learn not to live from but in symbiosis with nature, including other humans. But will it be sufficient to avoid extinction?The lecture is 16:15-17:30h in the Gorleaus building. <a href="https://www.universiteitleiden.nl/media-technology/news/hello-world-frans-saris" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Read more about the lecture</a>.
