Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz-Preistr?gerin Prof. Dr. Elisabeth André UA-Fotostelle
On the occasion of the award ceremony, Elisabeth André gave a keynote speech titled: "Socially Interactive Artificial Intelligence: Past, Present and Future". In her keynote, she gave an overview of the history of socially interactive virtual agents and robots - a rapidly developing field of research in whose development Elisabeth André played a significant role. Already in the early 90s, she had pushed virtual characters with communicative and social abilities as a new paradigm for human-technology interaction.

Fritz Bauer Study Award for Augsburg doctoral student Juliane Ohlenroth
Juliane Ohlenroth, a graduate of the 新万博体育下载_万博体育app【投注官网】 at the 新万博体育下载_万博体育app【投注官网】 of Augsburg and a doctoral student at the Chair of Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure Law and Contemporary Legal History, has been awarded the Fritz Bauer Prize for Young Lawyers by the German Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection. In her award-winning dissertation, she analyzes the sentencing practice of the Supreme Court of Justice (OGH), particularly with regard to the crime complexes "Nazi euthanasia," "judicial crimes," "denunciations," and "Reichspogromnacht." It shows that the court, which was staffed with remigrants and non-members of the party, arrived at entirely different interpretations of the law than the courts of instance and, later, the Federal Supreme Court (BGH) arrived at. The OGH, which has been the subject of much contemporary controversy, stands - like Fritz Bauer in his time - for a different, more appropriate way of dealing with Nazi injustice.
