Best paper award for Dennis Philipp
In June Dennis Philipp presented his recent work on the relativistic geoid at the special session on "Relativistic Metrology” at the 2017 Metrology for Aerospace conference in Padua, Italy (D. Philipp, V. Perlick, D. Puetzfeld, E. Hackmann, C. Lämmerzahl, Definition of the relativistic geoid in terms of isochronometric surfaces, Phys. Rev. D 95, 104037, 2017).
His talk and the contribution, which was one of 110 paper contributions to the conference, was awarded the “best paper presented by a young researcher” with a certificate and an exclusive silver plaque.

Prof. Dr. Daniel Grieser received the ars legendi prize for excellent academic education
Stifterverband für die deutsche Wissenschaft, Berlin.
Prof. Daniel Grieser, who is an associated member of the RTG Models of Gravity, was honored for the successful implementation of the highly innovative didactics and the sophisticated scientific background of the module "Mathematisches Problemlösen und Beweisen" (mathematical solutions and proofs), which is a forwarding component in the early semesters of the bachelor studies of math at the Carl-von-Ossietzky University Oldenburg.
The ars legendi faculty prize for math and science was awarded for the first time this year and it honours professors for their extraordinary dedication and high professionality. It is proclaimed in the four categories math, biology, chemistry and physics.
