These technologies not only solve complex challenges in Engineering and Technology, but also make a lasting contribution to improving everyday life.
What drives you to be active in the world of research and what visionary goals are you pursuing on this path?
Inspired by the words of the Persian philosopher and mathematician Khayyam, who said: "If I want to understand what is happening today, or try to decide what will happen tomorrow, I look back", I realize that our thoughts and actions today will significantly shape the future of generations to come. This insight drives me to make a lasting positive impact on our planet through the development of new technologies and scientific knowledge. In my research, I strive for groundbreaking insights that not only drive technological progress, but also help us to give our planet, fellow human beings and nature a better life. My goal is to make life more beautiful and enjoyable for many through my contribution by using artificial intelligence and new technologies. Today s prosperity is based on the brilliant knowledge of our previous generations, which I treat with great respect . This recognition leads me to the goal of leaving a positive mark for the next generation, and I am deeply convinced that we have a responsibility to make this world a better place.
What principles and beliefs shape your philosophy in relation to scientific work?
My research philosophy is centered on ethical principles. I see technology as a tool to improve life, but at the same time I have a responsibility to ensure that these developments are ethical. My goal is to conduct research that not only drives technological progress, but is also in line with ethical principles. This includes respecting privacy, ensuring safety standards and avoiding potentially negative impacts on society. By integrating ethical considerations into my work, I strive to create a positive and sustainable impact that respects the well-being of people and our environment.
