Researchers from Matters of Activity Awarded the Max Rubner Prize 2024

Last Monday, April 22nd, 2024 the Charité Foundation awarded the Max Rubner Award 2024 to three members of »Matters of Activity«, Zeynep Akbal, Moritz Queisner, and Igor Sauer, among others. Our warmest congratulations on this important award!
The researchers and their colleagues from the Experimental Surgery/Digital Surgery Lab at Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin want to use the award money to advance the PERISKOP project, which focuses on reducing preoperative anxiety and uncertainties of patients in the operating theater environment. As part of a cinematic journey in virtual reality, patients will be given an understanding of the typical procedure on the day of the operation, from arriving at the clinic to anesthesia and waking up.
