- Closing panel on Mainau Island – Livestream starting at 11.00 CEST: “Economics and Politics of War and Sanctions”
- 40 Laureates and more than 700 young scientists and economists enjoyed the personal exchange onsite
- All sessions are available in the Lindau Mediatheque
Outlook:
- 72nd Lindau Meeting (Physiology/Medicine), 25–30 June 2023 #LINO23
- 8th Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences, 26–30 August 2025
The 7th Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences ends today with the traditional boat trip from Lindau to Mainau Island and a final panel discussion. Since the opening last Tuesday, Laureates of the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences and young economists have enjoyed the personal exchange in Lindau. At the end of June, the 71st Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting (Chemistry) had already taken place. The organisers are grateful and pleased that both meetings could take place as planned despite the ongoing pandemic. After two years of online formats, the importance of personal encounters was greatly appreciated by the participants of both the Chemistry Meeting and the Meeting on Economic Sciences.
"This year’s meetings highlighted the need for science and politics to work together in order to find solutions to pressing societal issues: The transformation in the chemical industry through catalysis and green chemistry – and at the Meeting on Economic Sciences, digital transformation as well as geopolitics. Repeatedly, climate change was on the agenda at both meetings," summarises Countess Bettina Bernadotte, President of the Council.
Professor Jürgen Kluge, Chairman of the board of the Foundation Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings, concludes about the 2022 meetings: "Of course, we are still affected by the effects of the pandemic and the associated travel restrictions, but with participants from no less than 100 countries at both meetings and the significantly expanded digital options, we are on a very good course. Already this year, Nobel Laureates and young scientist have described the quality of the encounters as unique, not least because of the long anticipation."
Highlights of the Meetings
The challenges of our time shaped the program of both meetings. After all, it is science that provides valuable solutions to urgent crises such as climate change, pandemics and inequality. Today, for example, Oliver Hart, Eric S. Maskin and Sir Christopher A. Pissarides as well as young economist Saskia Meuchelböck will discuss strategies for economics and politics in times of war and sanctions at the closing panel. Furthermore, four Laureates participated in a Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences for the first time: Richard H. Thaler, Paul R. Milgrom, Robert B. Wilson and Joshua D. Angrist had been awarded the prize only after the last Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences.
Also at the Chemistry Meeting, several Nobel Laureates attended for the first time. With David W.C. MacMillan and Benjamin List, the participants were delighted to meet both 2021 Nobel Laureates in Chemistry. Presentations by young scientists were also particular highlights at the meetings. During the Next Gen Science and Economics sessions, more than 70 young scientists had the opportunity to present their own research to a renowned audience. As with this year’s meetings, young scientists who were already selected prior to the pandemic will come to Lindau for the next two years’ meetings – together with participants from the new selection processes, beginning in September for Physiology/Medicine 2023, 2024 in Physics.
Recordings of the 2022 Lindau Meetings available online
All program sessions of the two meetings are publicly available in the Lindau Mediatheque. Following the recent relaunch of the archive, recordings from more than 70 years of meeting history are now presented even more conveniently and in a modern design.
About the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings
Since their foundation in 1951, the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings
have developed into a unique international scientific forum. The annual Meetings provide an opportunity for an exchange between different generations, cultures and disciplines. The theme of the Lindau Meetings alternates between Physics, Chemistry or Physiology and Medicine – the three Nobel Prize scientific disciplines. Every five years an interdisciplinary Meeting takes place, while the Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences is held every three years. Through the medium of various declarations (2020 for Open Science, 2015 on Climate Change, 1955 Against the Use of Nuclear Weapons) the scientists have repeatedly joined in the public debate with political appeals.
It was the Lindau physicians Franz Karl Hein and Gustav Wilhelm Parade who approached Count Lennart Bernadotte af Wisborg with the idea of a meeting of Nobel Laureates and proceeded to jointly implement this with him – since 1953 with the participation of young scientists. Some 35,000 students, PhD candidates and post-docs have since taken part. Their experience of the Meeting may be literally once-in-a-lifetime, but they remain permanent members of the Lindau Alumni Network and ambassadors for scientific dialogue.
All year long the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings continue to pursue their ‘Mission Education’ aimed at emphasising the importance of science and advocating science and research. This is also the purpose of the Lindau Mediatheque as a learning platform with teaching materials for schools.
