Made in Science – The official podcast of the University of Stuttgart

We are talking to Franziska Hild, doctoral researcher at the Institute of Space Systems in the group Numerical Simulation at the University of Stuttgart. We talk about the prestigous Amelia Earhart Fellowship and what Franziska Hild thinks about theory and testing. Furthermore, we would like to know what she would bring back to Earth from a visit to space.

We speak to tenure-track professor Anja Lauer from the Institute for Construction Materials. Topics of the discussion include the IntCDC excellence cluster and its novel approach for the construction sector, the importance of diversity in her field of research, her stay abroad in Japan and which robot she would like to have to make everyday life easier.

Our guest is Prof. Andrea Barth, Head of Research Group for Computational Methods for Uncertainty Quantification at University of Stuttgart.

He knows the University of Stuttgart from different angles: Prof Ingmar Kallfass studied electrical engineering here, and since 2013 he has been Director of the Institute for Robust Power Semiconductor Systems, a newly founded facility of the Robert Bosch Centre for Power Electronics. Let us find out, why he returned and what is currently going on in his field of research. Why he thinks electrical engineering has a wrong public image in Germany and what all of us can do to protect the planet.

Prof. Peter Pott is Head of the Institute of Medical Device Technology at the University of Stuttgart and an expert in mechatronic systems in a medical technology context. We talk to him about biomedical systems as an up-and-coming field at the University of Stuttgart and the importance of meaningfulness for prospective students when choosing a study program. We also find out what significance a research stay in New Zealand had on his path.

Our interview partner is Prof. Dr. Michael Totzeck, ZEISS Fellow and Head of Corporate Research and Technology. His focus today is on quantum technology, artificial intelligence and additive manufacturing. The physicist set up his own working group at the Institute of Technical Optics at the University of Stuttgart in 1995, which he headed for seven years. Through his research activities at ZEISS, an honorary professorship at the University of Konstanz and as a member of the advisory board of the Stuttgart Research Center of Photonic Engineering (SCoPE), he actively contributes to the combination of academic research and industrial research.

Our guest is Dr. Luiz Chamon from Brazil, who came to the University of Stuttgart in 2022. He heads is own research group at the at the Cluster of Excellence SimTech and ELLIS. His research areas covers optimization, signal processing, machine learning, and control, particularly in some intersection of these fields. In our conversation we hear about different forms of learning, some of his international expierences, music in his life and what it is all about "living next door to ELLIS".

Professor Sabine Ludwigs, who is our podcast guest today is heading an interdisciplinary and international research team of polymer chemists, physical chemists and material scientists who are developing functional and intelligent polymer materials and devices. We talk with her about chemistry at the University of Stuttgart and her research activities, about functional soft materials and soft robotics, about the role of Music in her life and not to forget the new Center for Bionic Intelligence Tübingen Stuttgart (BITS).

We talk to Professor Katharina Hölzle, who has headed the Institute of Human Factors IAT at the University of Stuttgart and the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering IAO since 2022. Among other things, we talk about how the work of the future is being researched, what Hölzle advises the political level on and why the education system needs to be changed. Many inspiring statements can be heard in this interview.
