Congratulations to LASR on your 50th anniversary

Dear Professor Mardia and the LASR Community,
Warmest congratulations to you and LASR as you celebrate 50 years of interdisciplinary
collaboration. This milestone reflects a sustained commitment to bringing together diverse
perspectives and advancing research at the intersection of complex fields.
It is particularly inspiring to see a focus on protein structure prediction with its 25th
Anniversary. As the field continues to evolve rapidly, your work underscores the
importance of the foundational discussions and global expertise that LASR has championed
for decades. We also recognise the historic significance of Leeds University, where Astbury’s
pioneering breakthroughs laid such vital foundations for modern structural biology.
We wish LASR 2026 every success and look forward to your continued achievements in the
years ahead.
Best regards,
Pushmeet Kohli, Vice President, Science & Strategic Initiatives, Google DeepMind
