Dear Colleagues,

As Editor-in-Chief of Entropy, I am pleased to announce the winners of the 2018 Entropy Travel Awards.

The awards were granted to PhD student Carlos Granero Belinchon at Université Claude Bernard Lyon, France, and PhD student Peishi Jiang from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA.

Mr. Carlos Granero Belinchon obtained a Master’s Degree in Plasma Physics from Université Paris VI. He is currently writing a PhD thesis that combines physics and signal processing at the Physics Laboratory of the École Normale Supérieure.

Mr. Peishi Jiang’s research aims to quantify and characterize the causal interactions arising from information transferred along separable causal paths that affect a target variable, with a time series graphical model indicating the pathways of the interactions.

Both of them will present their work at the conference Entropy2018.

The award consists of 500 CHF and a waiver of the registration fee for the Entropy 2018 Conference.

Prof. Dr. Kevin H. Knuth
