Jonathan Liebers became a new professor at the Westphalian University of Applied Sciences
- Announcement

Dr. Jonathan Liebers, who joined RC Trust in March 2026 as a postdoctoral researcher in the Human-AI Interaction group led by Prof. Sven Mayer, has moved on to the next stage of his academic career.
During his time at RC Trust, Jonathan contributed to research at the intersection of human-computer interaction and artificial intelligence. His work particularly focused on intelligent and human-centered interactive systems, including questions around usable security, agentic AI, implicit interaction, and the use of machine learning to better understand and support users. In August, he was admitted to the Young Academy of TU Dortmund University, following a successful grant proposal.
In September 2026, Jonathan left RC Trust to take up a professorship at the Westphalian University of Applied Sciences. In his new role, he will continue his research in Usable Security, Human-Computer Interaction and Artificial Intelligence while also bringing these topics into teaching and the development of new research projects.
We thank Jonathan for his contributions to the Human-AI Interaction group and RC Trust and wish him all the best for this new chapter of his academic career.
