Career

Cremers received a bachelor's degree in mathematics (1994) and Physics (1994), and later a master's degree in Theoretical Physics (1997) from the University of Heidelberg. He obtained a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Mannheim in 2002. He was a postdoctoral researcher at UCLA. He was associate professor at the University of Bonn from 2005 until 2009.[1]

He received a Starting Grant (2009), a Consolidator Grant (2015) and an Advanced Grant (2020) by the European Research Council. On March 1, 2016, Cremers received the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize for having "brought the field of image processing and pattern recognition an important step closer to its goal of reproducing the abilities of human vision with camera systems and computers."[1][2]
