Congrats from us!
Albrecht Schmidt, who serves as a professor of Computer Science at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) in Munich and holds the Chair for Human-Centered Ubiquitous Media, was chosen for his significant impact in the areas of human-computer interaction, ubiquitous computing, and implicit interaction, as well as for his leadership within ACM SIGCHI.
«ACM Fellows are selected and appointed directly from within the research community. This acknowledgment is incredible for me. Thinking more about it, it reflects a professional life of amazing mentors, working with many supportive and inspiring colleagues, and being very lucky with the many students, postdocs, and interns, I could work with and learn from.»
