The area in front of the Institute of Computer Science has gained a new, eye-catching feature. On Thursday, July 23, 2026, we unveiled a new art and educational installation dedicated to the fundamental block of the entire digital world: the binary number system. Our exhibit is also part of a new educational trail being built between the institutes of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague 8.
On Wednesday, June 24, the Czech Academy of Sciences recognized the outstanding achievements of young researchers. Among this year’s 23 recipients of the prestigious Otto Wichterle Award for promising scientists under the age of 35 are two representatives from our institute: mathematical statistician Adéla Hladká and theoretical computer scientist Samuel Braunfeld.
The Institute of Computer Science of the Czech Academy of Sciences has joined EBRAINS AISBL as an Associate Member, strengthening its links to Europe’s digital research infrastructure for brain science. This partnership opens new opportunities for international collaboration and advanced research.
The Institute of Computer Science is pleased to welcome a prestigious new research project funded by the European Union. Wolfgang Poiger, Ph.D. will pursue his ERA Fellowship project GLOWS at the Institute, exploring new frontiers in theoretical computer science.
The Institute of Computer Science coordinates the excellent project Brain Dynamics, financed within the call for Excellence in Research of the Programme Johannes Amos Comenius until mid-2028. The Institute is implementing another 8 P JAC projects in the calls for Excellence in Research, Intersectoral Cooperation, MSCA Fellowships CZ, Social Sciences and Humanities.
