Statement of Purpose to Join the Forum (max. 200 words)

As a PhD student passionate about representation theory, I believe participating in the Forum alongside Shaw Laureates and distinguished scientists represents an invaluable opportunity to expand my scientific horizons and contribute meaningfully to global scientific discourse.

I am also deeply honoured to be a Croucher Scholar, and joining the Forum will enable me to thank the Croucher Foundation for their generosity in supporting my research. It will give me an opportunity to represent the Croucher Foundation and to show the Forum the work I have been doing.
