It recognises excellent, cross-state research projects in the humanities and social sciences. <\/p>\n\n<p>Four projects in total were awarded prizes, including three main award winners and one recognition award winner, with a total prize fund of \u20ac250,000. The award ceremony emphasises the importance of cooperation for innovative insights and the power of Northern Germany as a research location. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-9deab6a0 gb-headline-text\">The winning projects cover a wide spectrum:<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.t-paths.de\/t-north\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">T-NORTH<\/a> (Leibniz University Hannover) investigates the transfer of biomedical research findings into practice<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leibniz-ipn.de\/de\/forschen\/projekte\/format-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FORMAT<\/a> (University of Hildesheim) explores the use of AI in the writing learning process<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-rostock.de\/universitaet\/kommunikation-und-aktuelles\/medieninformationen\/detailansicht\/n\/projekt-der-universitaet-rostock-erhaelt-den-norddeutschen-wissenschaftspreis-2024-227023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ReproGerecht <\/a>(University of Rostock) is dedicated to reproductive justice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-rostock.de\/universitaet\/kommunikation-und-aktuelles\/medieninformationen\/detailansicht\/n\/projekt-der-universitaet-rostock-erhaelt-den-norddeutschen-wissenschaftspreis-2024-227023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEASCAPES<\/a> (University of Rostock \/ Kiel Kiel) investigates Stone Age structures in the Baltic Sea.

This is particularly the case for projects that combine natural sciences and humanities (such as SEASCAPES). <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Application relevance: The projects show a clear focus on the social relevance and applicability of the research results (T-NORTH, FORMAT, ReproGerecht). This should be considered more in future funding decisions. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Innovation and promoting early-career researchers: The jury particularly recognised the innovative approaches and commitment of young scientists (ReproGerecht, FORMAT). Promoting early-career researchers and supporting high-risk but potentially pioneering projects is essential. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digitalisierung und KI: Das Projekt FORMAT verdeutlicht das Potenzial von KI in der Bildung und die Notwendigkeit, die ethischen und p\u00e4dagogischen Implikationen dieser Technologie zu untersuchen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digitalisation and AI: The FORMAT project illustrates the potential of AI in education and the need to analyse the ethical and pedagogical implications of this technology.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The results of the 2024 North German Science Award provide a valuable impetus for the strategic orientation of science policy in Northern Germany and can also serve as best practice examples for future research funding programmes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It recognises excellent, cross-state research projects in the humanities and social sciences. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1779,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30,32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-awards","category-research-policy","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-50"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
