74% of MPI postdocs are international (immigrants).
Only about 25% of those international postdocs are certain they want to stay in Germany after their postdoc ends. Many cite family reasons, better opportunities abroad, or language barriers as factors.

🎞 State-Space Compression, Coarse-Graining, and the Averaging of Life and Mind
Simon DeDeo
Abstract
Renormalization is a principled coarse-graining of space-time. It shows us how the small-scale details of a system may become irrelevant when looking at larger scales and lower energies. Coarse-graining is also crucial, however, for biological and cultural systems that lack a natural spatial arrangement. I introduce the notion of coarse-graining and equivalence classes, and give a brief history of attempts to tame the problem of simplifying and "averaging" things as various as algorithms and languages. I then present state-space compression, a new framework for understanding the general problem. At the end, I present recent empirical results, in an animal social system, that show evidence for the coupling of scales: the reaction of coarse-grained facts about a system "downwards" to influence the microphysics.
