Mathias Unberath has been selected to receive a 2024 Johns Hopkins Catalyst Award, a prestigious recognition reflecting his accomplishments to date, creativity and originality, and academic impact. Unberath is among 35 promising early-career faculty members chosen from across the nine academic divisions of the Johns Hopkins University.
The 2024 honorees will each receive a $75,000 grant to support their work over the next year. They also will have the opportunity to participate in mentoring sessions and events designed to connect them with colleagues at similar stages in their careers.
The Catalyst Awards program was launched in early 2015, as was the Discovery Awards program for interdivisional collaborations. Together the two programs represent a $45 million university commitment to faculty-led research by university leadership along with the deans and directors of JHU’s divisions.
Unberath builds the future of computer-assisted medicine by creating collaborative intelligent systems. Through synergistic research on imaging, computer vision, machine learning, and interaction design, he invents human-centered solutions that are embodied in emerging technology such as mixed reality and robotics.
