The Alfred Tarski Lectures are an annual distinction in mathematical logic and series of lectures held at the University of California, Berkeley. Established in tribute to Alfred Tarski on the fifth anniversary of his death, the award has been given every year since 1989.[1][2] Following a 2-year hiatus after the 2020 lecture was not given due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the lectures resumed in 2023.[3]
