Ahmt Prize
19Sep2024, Dr. Stefan Rothe received the prestigious AHMT Measurement Systems Prize in Hall, Tyrol, Austria (AHMT: Working Group of University Professors for Measurement Systems), https://www.umit-tirol.at/page.cfm?vpath=departments/technik/ims/ahmt-symposium-2024
Since the AHMT Measurement Systems Symposium in Dresden in 1992, the AHMT Prize has been awarded annually to young scientists for outstanding dissertations. Many of the previous prize winners have later become professors, such as Andreas Fischer, who received his doctorate and habilitation in Dresden at the Chair of Measurement and Sensor System Technology, was appointed professor in Bremen and is currently AHMT president. Juergen Czarske, Stefan Rothe's doctoral supervisor, was also honored by the AHMT in 1996 (supervisor AHMT member Prof Fromund Hock).Stefan Rothe has received the AHMT Measurement Technology Prize 2024 due to the following outstanding achievements and the convincing fulfillment of the following AHMT criteria: Value for the increase in knowledge in the field of measurement technology, originality of the work, excellent doctorate (SCL), processing time until completion of the dissertation, special achievements in the CV, commitment to teaching, publication performance (total number with distinction in peer review and conference contributions, h-index, publications with first authorship), career path to university lecturer recognizable, experience in third-party funding applications, see https://ahmt.de/ahmt-preis/
During his doctorate in London, Dr Stefan Rothe worked at the UCL by a Lab2Lab Fellowship (Graduate Academy of TU Dresden) and prepared international collaborations. Thanks to support from the DFG with the Walter Benjamin Postdoctoral Fellowship (RO 7348/1-1), he is currently postdoc at Yale University.
