Prof. Dr. Ingrid Mertig, PI of TRR227 project B04, has been awarded with the Max Born Prize 2024 ...

"für ihre herausragenden Beiträge auf dem Gebiet der Spintronik. Hervorzuheben sind ihre bahnbrechenden Arbeiten zur Kombination von ab initio-Elektronenstrukturtheorie mit der Analyse von spin- und magnetisierungsabhängigen Transporteigenschaften. ---
for her outstanding contributions to the field of spintronics made possible by her pioneering work combining ab initio electronic structure theory with the analysis of spin- and magnetization-dependent transport properties."

Congratulations to Ingrid !

The Max Born Prize is awarded jointly by the British IOP and the DPG for particularly valuable and topical scientific contributions to physics in memory of Max Born's work in Great Britain and Germany. It is awarded annually alternately to a physicist who lives and works in Germany or Great Britain.
