- Forum Wissen Award 2025 for Prof. Dr. Astrid Eichhorn
Prof. Dr. Astrid Eichhorn, Professor of Theoretical Physics at Heidelberg University, has been awarded the Forum Wissen Award 2025 by the Förderkreis Forum Wissen e. V. (Forum Wissen Support Group). The award honors scientists who have made outstanding contributions to science communication and innovative communication concepts, and was presented on November 13, 2025. - Robert-Wichard-Pohl-Preis for Prof. Dr. Matthias Bartelmann
This year's Robert Wichard Pohl Prize for outstanding achievements in the dissemination of scientific knowledge in teaching, instruction, and the didactics of physics goes to Prof. Dr. Matthias Bartelmann of Ruprecht Karls University in Heidelberg for his outstanding research in theoretical astrophysics and cosmology, which has had a broad impact on the promotion of physics through several excellent textbooks on theoretical physics and numerous popular science articles. - Emmy Noether distinction of the European Physical Society for Lavinia Heisenberg
- Humoldt-Bessel Price for David Shih
David Shih is a leading particle theorist at Rutgers University, with a unique background covering string theory, LHC physics, and most recently machine learning application to LHC physics and cosmology. With this prize he will have the opportunity to spend time at the ITP and the IWR at Heidelberg University and build further bridges between fundamental physics and modern machine learning. - Symmetry Magazine: Seeing the full picture with line-intensity mapping (C.
