Congratulations to PhD student Chaitanya Joshi who has won a $40,000 Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship. He is one of just five winners from across Europe to receive this prestigious award.

The first group of Year 12 students to complete our five-month Women in Computer Science programme have just visited Cambridge for an end-of-course residential.

We're holding Open Days today and tomorrow - Thursday 4 and Friday 5 July - when we're welcoming prospective undergraduate students to come and look around.

Our former colleague Prof John Daugman - a pioneering computer scientist whose iris recognition algorithm helped change the lives of millions of people - died earlier this month.

A hackathon held here in the Department gave participants the chance to explore the development of secure applications for Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices using a novel secure architecture.

Congratulations to the six members of this Department who have been promoted as Professor - Nic Lane, Jamie Vicary, Thomas Sauerwald, Carl Henrik Ek, Tom Gur and Ferenc Huszár.

Congratulations to undergraduate Jakub Bachurski who has won the Undergraduate Grand Finals of the ACM Student Research Competition.

'The Atomic Human', a new book by our DeepMind Professor of Machine Learning, will try to reset the conversation around artificial intelligence when it is published this week.

Treating organised international cyberattacks the way we treat pandemics, and using honey traps to disrupt cybercrime-for-hire marketplaces, are topics on the agenda at June's Cambridge Cybercrime Conference.

Dozens of attendees attended a workshop for the industry, academia and government experts evaluating a pioneering new cybersecurity technology co-developed here.

We're holding a special event in June highlighting the work in Computer Architecture currently taking place here and discussing ways to build our future capacity in this field.

We're saddened by the death of Jack Lang, an enthusiastic supporter of the next generation of computer scientists and company founders who had a long association with this Department.

A Livery Company celebrating 400 years of history is honouring a student researching cutting-edge cybersecurity technology.

Meet our new Planetary Computing Fellows who, thanks to philanthropic support, are working on harnessing the power of computer science to tackle the twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss.

Arm has been named Company of the Year in our annual Hall of Fame Awards — a celebration of the companies set up by students, staff and alumni of this Department.

Stellar speakers and a growing recogntion that Theoretical Computer Science has relevance far beyond its own discipline made the inaugural Cambridge Algorithms and Complexity Workshop this week a great success.
