My primary objective as a full member would be to emphasise the significance of theoretical computer science as a key discipline within computer science. I believe that the increasing prominence of artificial intelligence and machine learning is elevating the importance of theoretical computer science particularly the areas of algorithms and complexity theory.
As an elected full member of the EATCS I would concentrate on strengthening and modernising the education in theoretical computer science at our universities. I would also endeavour to enhance the impact of European TCS conferences, particularly ICALP.
