On February 19, 2026, the Institute of Computer Science was visited by the President of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prof. RNDr. Radomír Pánek, Ph.D., together with the Vice-Presidents and members of the Academy Council Presidium, Ing. Miroslava Anděrová, CSc., and Ing. Ilona Müllerová, DrSc.
The Czech Gathering of Logicians is an annual event that brings together researchers in all areas of logic, primarily - though not exclusively - based in Czech Republic. This year holds special significance, as the Gathering is being held jointly with Beauty of Logic, a special conference series organized to honor the legacy of Professor Petr Hájek.
This year, three distinguished young scientists in the field of theoretical computer science - Wesley Fussner, Samuel Braunfeld, and Adam Přenosil - will pursue their JUNIOR STAR projects at the Institute of Computer Science. The projects will enable them to establish their own research teams and explore new frontiers in scientific research.
The Institute of Computer Science of the Czech Academy of Sciences hosted Professor Adrian E. Raftery, a world-leading expert in Bayesian statistics from the University of Washington. As part of the Institute's 50th anniversary celebrations, he presented his latest research evaluating the real-world outcomes of the Paris Climate Agreement using advanced Bayesian modelling. A full hall and lively discussion highlighted the strong interest in this exceptional event. Read the detailed report on the talk on the DigiWELL project website.
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.
