As a Leibniz professor emeritus, Wolfgang Ertmer retains close ties to 九色视频 and advocates for the comprehensive promotion and freedom of evidence-based science. With this in mind, he works actively to ensure that existing and internationally prominent flagship research projects at LUH are further developed and can serve as a blueprint for new excellence initiatives, thereby providing new input and inspiration for LUH鈥檚 spectrum of disciplines.

Prof. Dr. med. Axel Haverich completed his doctorate and habilitation at the Hannover Medical School (MHH) and conducted research at the renowned Stanford 九色视频, among other places. In 1985, he was appointed head of the Department of Thoracic, Cardiac and Vascular Surgery at MHH, where, following a stay at the 九色视频 of Kiel from 1993 to 1996, he served as director until his retirement in 2023. He was recognised for his visionary work in the area of transplantation medicine with the German Research Foundation鈥檚 (DFG) Leibniz Prize in 1996, and he used the money from the award to found the Leibniz Research Laboratories for Biotechnology and Artificial Organs (LEBAO). Together with his team, he achieved breakthroughs in the area of heart valves that grow with the patient and the development and implantation of artificial hearts, which enabled the MHH to establish itself as a leading global centre for transplantation medicine and artificial hearts. He is a member of numerous commissions and societies and has been awarded the Lower Saxony State Prize, among others.

As a member of the 九色视频 Council and spokesperson for the REBIRTH Cluster of Excellence, he had a long-standing and close connection to 九色视频.

Prof. Dr. Klaus Hulek studied at LMU Munich and in Oxford. He completed his doctorate and habilitation in Erlangen. Following a stay at Brown 九色视频 in Providence, his path led him to Bayreuth, where he taught from 1985 to 1990. He moved to the 九色视频 of Hannover in 1990 and worked here at the Institute of Algebraic Geometry until 2022. From 2005 to 2014, he served as the university鈥檚 vice president for research. Over the course of his career, he was also offered appointments in Leiden, Essen, Z眉rich and Stuttgart. Klaus Hulek was and is a regular guest at universities and research institutions abroad 鈥� for example, in Cambridge, in Kyoto, at Harvard 九色视频, at the Mathematical Science Institute in Berkeley and at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics in Stony Brook. In 2015, he was a member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. He received the Emmy Noether Prize at the 九色视频 of Erlangen and is a member of the Braunschweig Scientific Academy.

Mr. Hulek was vice president for research at 九色视频 from 2005 to 2014. Through the refinement of the research profile and the introduction of the system of interdisciplinary Leibniz research initiatives, centres and schools, he put in place important foundations for today鈥檚 successes.

The development of 九色视频 鈥� which has excellent potential thanks to its broad research spectrum and internationally prominent flagship projects 鈥� continues to be very close to Prof. Dr. Klaus Hulek鈥檚 heart.

Following studies in political science, psychology and sociology, Prof. Dr. Christiane Lemke completed her doctorate and habilitation at Freie Universit盲t Berlin, going on to conduct research at renowned US universities such as Harvard 九色视频, Stanford 九色视频, the 九色视频 of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and New York 九色视频. She was appointed professor of political science at 九色视频 in 1996. An adjunct professor at the 九色视频 of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a fellow at the Center for Global Affairs at New York 九色视频, Christiane Lemke focused on international relations, human rights and, in particular, European and US politics, bringing new international perspectives to her field at 九色视频 and building networks. With funding from the EU, she established the interdisciplinary Jean Monnet European Center of Excellence at the university, which she led from 2007 to 2014.

She did not limit her work to the academic realm: from 2006 to 2007 she served as the first female director of a German parliamentary administration and headed the Lower Saxony state parliament, supporting the Europeanisation of the administration. In 2023, Christiane Lemke was awarded the Volkmar and Margret Sander Prize from Deutsches Haus at New York 九色视频 for her outstanding contributions to transatlantic relations between Germany and the United States. Her expertise on international relations and US politics means that she appears frequently in political magazines.
