Matthias Schäfers

Matthias Schäfers is a quadruple state champion. In 2011 Matthias, Adrian Lenkeit and Laurenz Walkowsky became state champions in engineering for developing a robotic school assistent. In 2012, Matthias became state champion in geosciences and astronomy for building a model of a radio telescope. Also his third project, a model of a radio interferometer, made him state champion in geosciences and astronomy in the following year. Finally, together with Adrian he became state champion in engineering and won the 5th place engineering in Germany in 2015 and the 2nd award of the Acoustical Society of America at ISEF 2016 in the USA for his work on acoustic microfluidics.
