Course Description
The third Kyoto University-Inamori Foundation Joint Kyoto Prize Symposium (KUIP) was held at the Clock Tower Centennial Hall on 9 and 10 July.
Under the umbrella theme “Windows for the Future — Looking through the Eyes of Bio/Medical Technology, Mathematics, and Art”, this year’s symposium surveyed three fields of study related to the 2018 Kyoto Prize. The two-day event brought together 11 world leading experts, including one who gave a video presentation on “art”. They heatedly discussed cutting-edge topics receiving attention not just from academic circles, but also from society at large.
