    • Christian Frezza

      Cancer cells grow significantly quicker in the body than normal cells. Their metabolism thus functions differently and utilises nutrients at a much faster rate. The metabolism researcher Christian Frezza is searching for ways of disturbing or even preventing nutrient utilisation in cancer cells so that they can no long grow and eventually die.

    • Angela Schoellig

      Whether you think in terms of autonomous drones, self-driving cars or robots that care for the sick or support older people, machines constantly have to respond to new and unexpected situations. Not all of these situations can be predicted and programmed with the appropriate default response. Machine learning and robots that learn from their experience are the solution.

    • Gustav Holzegel

      As a specialist in Einstein field equations, the mathematician Gustav Holzegel studies physical theories on the properties of the universe. He has, for instance, managed to find solutions to the mathematical equations in the general theory of relativity which explain the stability of black holes.

    • Suvrit Sra

      When mathematics meets AI, and optimisation, machine learning: mathematician Suvrit Sra’s fundamental works on methods of optimisation have made a seminal and incomparable contribution to the theoretical understanding and continued development of learning systems. TUM Munich wants to harness the Humboldt Professorship for Artificial Intelligence to expand its leading position in the field of artificial intelligence.

    • Stefanie Jegelka

      The fundamental research conducted by computer scientist Stefanie Jegelka has led to a better understanding and optimisation of graph neural networks (GNNs) and made her name. In Munich, she is called upon to drive our theoretical understanding of machine learning and develop algorithms as well as trustworthy machine learning tools.
