One of TU Dresden's leading academics, Professor Gianaurelio Cuniberti, was awarded a prestigious honor by the President of the Italian Republic: the Order of the Star of Italy. The honor was formally presented by Italy’s Ambassador to Germany, Armando Varricchio, during an event on Artificial Intelligence organized by the Italian Association of Researchers in Germany (SIGN e.V.) at the Italian Embassy in Berlin on Tuesday, 19 November.

The Order, which refers to the Stella d'Italia, one of the country's oldest national and state symbols, is the second highest civilian award of the Italian Republic. It is awarded by the Italian President on the recommendation of the Italian Foreign Minister and after careful selection by a forty-member Order Council (Consiglio dell'Ordine). The Order is awarded to Italian citizens and foreigners who have distinguished themselves through their outstanding contributions to cultural, social, scientific and economic exchange between Italy and other countries.

"It is a great honor for me to be awarded this medal. This is not only a recognition of my scientific work, but also a sign of appreciation for my efforts to build bridges between my country of birth and my current home in Germany," says Prof. Cuniberti.
