SICK AG, founded by Dr. Erwin Sick, is a manufacturer of intelligent and innovative sensors in the fields of factory, logistics and process automation. To promote engineering and natural sciences at the TUD, the Gisela and Erwin Sick Foundation annually awards three prizes worth a total of 10,000 euros.

This year, the Gisela and Erwin Sick Foundation's University Prize for Measurement Systems Engineering goes to Dr. Jiawei Sun from the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering for his dissertation on "Learning-based Three-Dimensional Optical Cell Rotation Tomography and Quantitative Phase Imaging Using Multi-Core Fibers".

Dr. Giuseppe Ciccone from the Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering and Dr. Kai Geißdörfer from the Faculty of Computer Science will be awarded the Prize for Measurement and Sensor Technology from the School of Engineering Sciences. Both are being honored for their outstanding doctoral theses. Ciccone wrote his thesis on the topic: "Novel OLED architectures for multicolor optogenetics", Geißdörfer dealt with "Methods and Tools for Battery-free Wireless Networks" in his dissertation.

Yuan Sui received the Young Talent Award from the Gisela and Erwin Sick Foundation. He is being honored for his dissertation entitled "High-fidelity transmission through multimode fibers using deep learning".

The award ceremony will take place on May 3 in the University Executive Board's ballroom.
