🏆 Tomorrow, we are presenting the #EinsteinFoundationAward for Promoting Quality in Research 2025! Stay tuned for live coverage of the award ceremony, or follow us on Instagram for exclusive insights starting at 6 pm CET: www.instagram.com/einsteinfoun...
Which LLMs are willing to commit academic fraud? Together with Alexander Alemi, #EinsteinFoundationAward winner and arXiv founder Paul Ginsparg tested how easy it is to get LLMs to create articles to submit to arXiv, which has been overwhelmed with a surge of submissions over the past few years.
Join us next Friday to discuss how to make research more robust and reproducible with the 2025 #EinsteinFoundationAward winners, followed by drinks and opportunities for informal exchange.

Lesenswerter Beitrag im Laborjournal über #EinsteinFoundationAward Early Career Gewinner Maximilian Sprang 🔽
#EinsteinFoundationAward 2023 Gewinnerin @gaertneranne.bsky.social ist im Kalender 2026 der @tudresden.bsky.social vertreten, der herausragende Wissenschaftlerinnen würdigt. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!

Great to see such a broad community collaborating to advance the responsible use of AI in biomedicine. Congrats to 2025 Early Career #EinsteinFoundationAward recipient Maximilian Sprang, and his co-hosts – work like this builds trust and quality in research, exactly what the award aims to support.
💡 In 2023, psychologist @gaertneranne.bsky.social @tudresden.bsky.social won the €100K Early Career #EinsteinFoundationAward to reform research assessment – shifting the focus from impact factors to the quality of candidates’ work. Goal: to reform the way senior-rank faculty members are appointed.
💐 We congratulate Maximilian Sprang for receiving the #EinsteinFoundationAward.
👉 Prof. Dr. Ulrich Dirnagl talked with him about his project ‘Erring Rigorously’: www.bihealth.org/en/notices/t...
How do we know genomic data is real & not just noise? Even advanced sequencing can be disrupted by small errors. Maximilian Sprang, bioinformatician @unimainz.bsky.social, tackles this with his #EinsteinFoundationAward winning project 'Erring Rigorously'.
