    year-old German wins 'Nobel of mathematics"

    Peter Scholze, a mathematician and professor at the University of Bonn in western Germany, was one of four recipients of the Fields Medal on Wednesday at the International Congress of Mathematics in Rio de Janeiro. The award is the most prestigious in the field of mathematics and is often compared to the Nobel Prize.

    Awarded once every four years since , the Fields Medal is given by the University of Toronto to up to four outstanding mathematicians. It has an endowment of 15, Canadian dollars ($11,).

    Of his achievement, Peter Scholze told DPA news agency that it was "an exceptional honor" to receive the medal.

    The young mathematician is only the second German to win the coveted prize. Gerd Faltings, currently a director of the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, won the award in

    Meet the rising stars of European mathematics

    Time is a precious resource for Peter Scholze (pictured above). Despite his constant lack of it, he's agreed to a short interview on the steps near the main auditorium at Berlin's Technical University. Scholze is polite, but you can tell he's more comfortable speaking to an audience of mathematicians than an audio recorder.

    Since the year-old became Germany's youngest professor at the age of 24 and the youngest ever Leibniz laureate at 27, both the academic and the media world have taken notice of him.

    Now, five years on, the European Mathematical Society (EMS) has honored Scholze for his groundbreaking research in the field of arithmetic algebraic geometry. With two key lectures, he's one of the heavy weights at this year's European Congress of Mathematics, which saw 1, mathematicians from all around the world attend.
