27 Computer Vision News Computer Vision News very good. We spoke a lot about the past. Tell us a couple of things about your future. Where are you going? I never planned my future, but I'm currently very happy with this with this position and also I like working with the PhD students a lot. I'm sometimes a bit sad that I'm not that much into the research work. So I very much enjoy the research discussions with the PhD students, even though time is very limited. And I am also doing many other things like project proposal writing and so on, which is necessary to get the research funded. But I much more enjoy the research discussions. My goals for the future are more on myself to put more priority on the research again and try to get more time for that. I have maybe one last question for you. It's about the one day your career will end. What would be a fantastic thing that will make you say, I did it! It was worth doing it! What would happen from here to the end of your career that will make you say: that's exactly what I wanted to accomplish… What makes me really happy and proud is to enable people to do research and that I teach them how to develop and how to be confident about their research and generate the new generation of researchers. Is empowerment what you mean? Oh, thank you! In Germany, the number of female researchers in this field is very, very limited. And still, I really have problems finding female researchers. What would be really great is if in 20 years from now on, we have like 50 percent female researchers at this institute, that would be really great! “… to enable people to do research and that I teach them how to develop and how to be confident about their research and generate the new generation of researchers!” Anna Hilsmann Read 160 FASCINATING interviews with Women in Computer Vision!
