At the 51 st  Annual Conference of the German Informatics Society (GI), four scientists were honored for their outstanding achievements in computer science and appointed as GI-Fellows. Among the four scientists to receive this prestigious award is SFB-TRR project leader Oliver Deussen.

Oliver Deussen is one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of visualization. The German Informatics Society particularly emphasizes his success at communicating the results of his research to the public. Among other examples, his efforts have helped to increase the general public’s awareness of the technical possibilities for image manipulation—a topic which is of particular social and political relevance in times of “fake news”.
