Two Master Students selected for Wübben Stiftung Wissenschaft Scholarship

The Wübben Stiftung is a private foundation based in Berlin aiming to strengthen Germany as a hub for science and research by supporting outstanding scholars at different stages of their careers. Now in its third round, the grant program recognizes students from all disciplines who demonstrate exceptional scientific potential, intellectual curiosity, and the courage to pursue unconventional research paths.

Starting in October 2025, the foundation will support 55 students from 12 countries with a monthly stipend for one year, enabling them to fully concentrate on the final stage of their studies. The scholarship holders represent a wide range of disciplines, including Data Science, Neuroscience, and Social Sciences.

The selection of Niklas Müller and Kyra Olechnowicz highlights both their remarkable academic achievements and their commitment to addressing key scientific challenges in the field of aging and regeneration research.

CECAD warmly congratulates both students on this achievement and wishes them continued success in their academic careers.
