PIK congratulates fellow Yuri Maistrenko on Humboldt Research Award
Yuri Maistrenko received the Humboldt Research award from the president of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Professor Schlögl.

“Yuri Maistrenko is a world-leading scientist in nonlinear dynamics and complex systems,” says Jürgen Kurths of PIK´s research department Complexity Science, who is hosting Maistrenko. “He has made fundamental contributions on complex networks and has found virtual chimera, a novel phenomenon in complex systems.” It has become a basis for neuromorphic and reservoir computing, a novel branch of machine leaning.

During his stay at PIK, Maistrenko will work on uncovering hidden mechanisms of blackouts in modern power grids which cost businesses more than $150 billion annually.
