The Academia Europaea, the Pan-European Academy of Humanities, Letters and Sciences based in London, has inducted CISPA-Faculty Professor Dr. Andreas Zeller as a member. Membership in the Academia Europaea is by invitation only and it requires sustained academic excellence with international impact. Andreas Zeller receives this honor for his influential research in the field of software testing and analysis. The Academia Europaea currently counts 374 computer scientists among its members, 46 of whom are from Germany.
At its 35th annual meeting in Poland, the Academia Europaea has officially welcomed CISPA researcher Andreas Zeller as a member. Membership invitations are preceded by a multi-step selection process. New membership candidates first have to be nominated by two existing members of the academy. Nominations must then be reviewed and approved by expert committees, before the formal election of new members may take place in a board of trustees meeting. This year's annual meeting, entitled "Building Bridges 2024", is held at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology from November 26 to 28.
Professor Dr. Andreas Zeller is tenured Faculty at CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security and professor for Software Engineering at Saarland University. His research focusses on automated debugging, mining software archives, specification mining, and security testing. The sustained international significance of Zeller’s research is evidenced by a total of nine Test of Time Awards. These awards honor the lasting impact of individual research contributions. He is also one of the few researchers to have received two ERC Advanced Grants from the European Research Council. Zeller is an ACM Fellow and holds an ACM SIGSOFT Outstanding Research Award.
The Academia Europaea was founded in 1988 and currently has over 5,500 members from 23 scientific disciplines, including the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. The Nobel Prize was awarded to 88 members of the Academia Europaea, while seven received the Turing Award. About his induction into the Academia Europaea, Andreas Zeller says: “I am proud and honored to be welcomed into the circle of Europe’s leading researchers and scientists. Membership in the Academia Europaea is a distinction granted to only a few researchers, and it motivates me to continue addressing the key questions in computer science.”
