We host a range of visitors who work with us from days to weeks. They collaborate on research, spread the word about our Institute, and strengthen ties with their home institutions. We have two visitor programmes that offer funding: Mendeleev Visitors and Cognia Visitors.i
Edward Frenkel
10 Dec 2025Prof. Edward Frenkel is a mathematician at UC Berkeley, a DJ and the author of the international bestseller “Love and Math”. He visits LIMS to give a seminar on his recent research on integrable models and discuss his life and work with our chief science writer and Prof. Yang-Hui He.
Dmitry Kaledin
22 Nov 2025Prof. Dmitry Kaledin of HSE University is a leading authority on category theory. He visits us for a week to give two lectures on homotopical enhancements and non-commutative Hodge theory, and a public talk on the DAU project, which is inspired by the life of physicist Lev Landau.
Stephen Wolfram
13 Oct 2025Dr Stephen Wolfram is a physicist and entrepreneur who combines pioneering work in physics and computation with building some of the world’s most influential software. He visits LIMS to discuss his intellectual journey and future ambitions with our director and chief science writer...
Alexey Milekhin
22 Sep 2025Dr Alexey Milekhin is a quantum information scientist at the University of Kentucky. His research bridges quantum many-body dynamics and gravity. Dr Milekhin was the first to theoretically describe a traversable wormhole and he visits LIMS to present his work on “entanglement in time".
Alexander Migdal
1 Sep 2025Prof. Alexander Migdal of the Institute for Advanced Study is recognised for seminal contributions to quantum field theory, quantum gravity and turbulence. He delivers a lecture on Yang-Mills gradient flow and engages in discussions with our scientists during his three-day visit.
Vladimir Kazakov
26 Jul 2025Prof. Vladimir Kazakov works at École Normale Supérieure and is renowned for his foundational work on matrix models and integrability. He visits us for five days to collaborate on the principal chiral model and give a lecture on a new approach to correlation functions in AdS/CFT.
Konstantin Zarembo
26 Jul 2025Prof. Konstantin Zarembo is a physicist at Nordita in Stockholm and a pioneer of integrability in AdS/CFT. He visits LIMS to collaborate on a project exploring the two-dimensional principal chiral model, and to give a lecture on the Peierls transition in the Gross–Neveu model.
