    • Robert Raußendorf

      Why is the biological development of the human slower than that of the mouse? Japanese researcher Miki Ebisuya, who is invited to become a Humboldt Professor at TU Dresden, works on the biophysical mechanisms behind this question. In the long term, it is hoped her fundamental research will generate knowledge for the development of new regenerative therapies.

    • Peter Nicholas Robinson

      Peter N. Robinson is a pioneer in the computer-assisted genome and phenotype analysis of genetic diseases. His major work has been the development of the Human Phenotype Ontology, which is now a standard tool used internationally to diagnose gene-related diseases. At the Charité in Berlin, Robinson is invited to develop algorithms for AI-based precision medicine.

    • Marcus Rohrbach

      In most artificial intelligence (AI) applications, models learn from data that derives from a single information source. Additional data sources or so-called modalities can make AI models better and more reliable. An expert in multimodal learning, Marcus Rohrbach is set to become a Humboldt Professor for Artificial Intelligence in Darmstadt.
