Prof. Dr. Udo Kamps, one of the leading names in the world in the field of probability and statistics, working at Aachen University in Germany, sent me a congratulations message after my speech. My goal is to continue to contribute to the world of science with my studies in probability theory and mathematical statistics. This is what will make me happy the most.”
