Dr. Stefanie Jannedy is a senior researcher at the Leibniz-Zentrum Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft (ZAS) in Berlin, where she has been employed since 2008. She is a Principal Investigator of the DFG project C02 "Variation in Situated Interaction" within the Collaborative Research Center 1412 (CRC 1412) on "Register: Language-Users' Knowledge of Situational-Functional Variation." As a member of the Laboratory Phonology Group, her work focuses on sociophonetic aspects of language variation. Dr. Jannedy's research centers on language register, phonetic variation, and sociolinguistic patterns in speech. Her work particularly examines how situational contexts influence phonetic detail in speech production, with a focus on intra-individual variation. She has developed innovative experimental methods, including smartphone applications like "Plapper" for self-recording speech data in controlled conditions. Her research spans formal and informal speech contexts, examining speech rate, vowel dispersion, filler particles, and other phonetic features that vary systematically across different communicative situations. Analysis of her publication record shows a strong focus on register variation, particularly how speakers systematically adjust their speech across different social contexts. Her work combines experimental methods with corpus-based approaches to investigate fine phonetic detail in relation to situational factors. Recent publications demonstrate increasing interdisciplinary connections between phonetics, sociolinguistics, and cognitive science in understanding register knowledge. Dr. Jannedy has advised several students including Schüppenhauer, Gediminas, Witt, Johannes, and Hong, Nhung-Le. Her research is primarily supported through the CRC 1412 framework, which represents a major collaborative effort in register studies. Her laboratory work involves experimental setups that simulate tele-conference interactions to systematically manipulate social contexts while measuring subtle phonetic differences. This methodological innovation allows for controlled examination of register variation that would be difficult to capture in naturalistic settings.

Christian List is Professor of Philosophy and Decision Theory at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, where he serves as Co-Director of the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP). Previously, he was Professor of Philosophy and Political Science at the London School of Economics until 2020. His work bridges philosophy, economics, and political science with a particular focus on individual and collective decision-making and the nature of intentional agency. Professor List's research spans multiple interconnected domains: theories of individual and collective choice (particularly social choice theory and judgment aggregation), free will and consciousness, the philosophy of mind and action, and the foundations of the social sciences. His work on group agency, developed in his influential book Group Agency with Philip Pettit, has reshaped debates about corporate entities and collective intentionality. His more recent work on free will, culminating in his book Why Free Will is Real , presents a scientifically grounded defense of free will against reductionist skepticism. His recent publications reveal a sophisticated integration of formal methods with deep philosophical questions, particularly regarding consciousness, probability aggregation, and the relationship between different levels of explanation. List's work consistently demonstrates how mathematical precision can illuminate fundamental philosophical problems while maintaining relevance to broader social and scientific contexts. Scientific Awards and Recognition: Elected Fellow of the British Academy (2014) Member of Academia Europaea (2023) Member of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities (2022) Joseph B. Gittler Award from the American Philosophical Association (2020) Philip Leverhulme Prize in Philosophy (2007) 5th Social Choice and Welfare Prize (2010) List has supervised numerous PhD students and early-career researchers, many of whom have gone on to prominent positions in philosophy and related fields. His collaborative work with Franz Dietrich on judgment aggregation has been particularly influential. As Co-Director of the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy, he has secured substantial research funding and established MCMP as a leading international hub for formal and mathematical approaches to philosophical problems. Through the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy, List leads a vibrant research community that brings together philosophers, economists, political scientists, and mathematicians to tackle foundational questions using rigorous formal methods. The center hosts regular workshops, seminars, and visiting scholars, creating a dynamic intellectual environment that bridges disciplinary boundaries.

Prof. Dr. Paul Mecheril is a faculty member at Bielefeld University , Germany, where he conducts research and contributes to academic discourse in the fields of racism, migration, and educational sociology. His research interests center on racism research , particularly from a postpositivist and critical perspective. He advocates for rassismuskritische Forschung (racism-critical research) that moves beyond identifying individual prejudice to analyzing the historical, institutional, and affective structures that sustain racism. His work emphasizes the epistemic, political, and existential dimensions of conducting research on racism, especially for those personally affected by racialization. He explores concepts such as family resemblance in racist practices, the ideal-typical basic form of racism , and the affective logic (fear, anger, shame) underpinning societal responses to migration and difference. His scholarship critically examines the articulation of racism with nation, state, and capitalism, and the ways in which even anti-racist rhetoric can perpetuate subtle, indirect forms of exclusion. His recent contributions, such as his 2021 commentary on the RfM debate, demonstrate his active engagement in shaping the future of racism research in Germany, calling for more conceptual work and reflexivity in the field. Scientific Awards: No awards mentioned in the provided text. As a scholar who has reflected on his own motivations and experiences of racialization, Prof. Mecheril's work is deeply personal and politically committed.
