László Székelyhidi, Jr. graduated in 2000 from the
University of Oxford and obtained his PhD in 2003 at the Max Planck
Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences under the supervision of Stefan
Müller. Since 2011, he has been Professor for Applied Mathematics at
the University of Leipzig. He has been awarded the Oberwolfach Prize in
2010 and the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize in 2018. His main interests
are, broadly speaking, partial differential equations and the calculus
of variations. In recent years he has been working on mathematical
hydrodynamics, specifically questions related to turbulence.
