The award winner
Cornelia Betsch is a professor at the University of Erfurt.

She works together with the Federal Centre for Health Education, the Robert Koch Institute, and the World Health Organization.
From the outset of the coronavirus pandemic, Cornelia Betsch has repeatedly surveyed the general public about their knowledge of the virus as well as their perceptions of risk, protective behaviors, and trust in political decisions.
