For nearly 75 years, the
Lindau Nobel Laureate
Meetings have enabled
scientific and personal
exchange between
generations, disciplines,
and cultures.
This year’s Economics Laureates illuminate the forces behind economic growth, showing how new ideas and creative destruction together sustain the remarkable economic progress we often take for granted.
Explore the scientific journey that led to our modern understanding of regulatory T cells: the immune system’s crucial peacekeepers, and understand why this work was announced to be awarded with a Nobel Prize.
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry celebrates three scientists who created a new class of cavity-forming molecules capable of capturing substances like carbon dioxide or pharmaceuticals, opening the door to powerful practical applications.
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics was jointly awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for bringing quantum physics from the subatomic world onto a chip.
Dipa Ghindani, 2024 Lindau Alumna, describes how the Physics Meeting changed her perspective, drive, and confidence as a scientist.
After #LINO25, Alumna Sajal Arwish says nothing felt the same: the uniquely friendly, one-to-one exchanges with Nobel Laureates – from a panel on circular chemistry & sustainability to a Science Walk with Sir Stanley Whittingham – were truly life-changing.
A recap of three perspectives on security in the age of AI, shared at #LINOecon this summer, concludes our blog series covering the Economics Meeting.
Global Challenges: Hunger, Climate, and the Cost of Inaction. At the 2025 Nobel Meeting in Economic Sciences, David Beasley warned that hunger and forced migration fuel global instability. In a high-level panel, economists like Lars Peter Hansen and Joseph Stiglitz call for pragmatic climate action, fair carbon pricing, and global cooperation.
A satellite image of the Korean peninsula at night – South Korea glowing with economic vitality, North Korea largely dark – captures the stark contrast shaped by governance, institutions, and economic systems. This powerful visual sets the stage for the 2025 Lindau Nobel Meeting in Economic Sciences. Some sessions referred to this topic.
Our last day at Lindau featured a sunny trip to Mainau Island, a powerful panel on institutions and development, and heartfelt farewells. As Young Scientists became Lindau Alumni, they celebrated with music, good vibes, and an unforgettable party.
Anastasiya works in the areas of development economics and economics of education. Her specialization is in digital social-emotional interventions, particularly in low- and middle-income countries and conflict settings.
Final day at Lindau Inselhalle: In addition to the always inspiring Lectures by the Laureates in Economic Sciences, David Beasley gave a passionate speech on the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the World Food Programme. Young Scientists shared their research, engaged in lively discussions – and all participants ended the day with a joyful celebration in true Bavarian style.
In two compelling sessions, economists explored the fine line between resilience and fragility, from the inner workings of banks to the behavior of everyday consumers.
Lorena’s research line is inequality, particularly social mobility and factors that affect it. She is also interested in evaluating the impact of social programs, financial literacy, and gender gap, particularly related to STEM.
Another day full of insights: from election methods to climate policy debates plus inspiring talks by Young Scientists and a memorable Heidelberg Lecture by Yael Tauman Kalai.
It is a decade since the UN adopted the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and this session will focus on the contribution of chemistry to achieving these goals. The panel is to discuss how chemistry research is contributing to overcoming challenges from climate and energy to environment and health.
From a lot of badges in his office to the synthesis and light lab. Ben Feringa received the 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry together with Fraser Stoddart and Jean-Pierre Sauvage “for the design and synthesis of molecular machines”. Visit his Nobel Lab 360° to find out more about his ground-breaking research!
Discover the Nobel Poster Series 2025 highlighting scientific breakthroughs awarded with the last year’s Nobel Prize. Inspired by groundbreaking discoveries in the fields of quantum mechanics, the immune system, organometallic chemistry, and technological innovation, this powerful poster collection fuses science, creativity, and visual storytelling.
The session that kicked-off the #LINOecon Scientific Programme revolved around some of the fundamental questions affecting research and innovation in today’s world: Which are the links between curiosity-driven research, innovation, and prosperity? Among the high-ranked panelists was Mario Draghi, former Prime Minister of the Italian Republic and former President of the European Central Bank.
In 2024, John Jumper became the youngest Nobel Laureate in Chemistry in the past 70 years. At #LINO25 in 2025, he took the stage in Lindau to share insights into solving the long-standing challenge of protein folding.
A short documentary film commemorates the 70th anniversary of the first visit of a Peace Nobel Laureate to a Lindau Meeting. Albert Schweitzer’s visit in 1954 not only marked a new epoch for the Meetings but also had a profound impact on some of the 20th-century’s leading physicists that were assembled in Lindau.
