# Fabian Reinwarth – ZIB e. V.

Fabian Reinwarth
================

Research Associate | TUM

 Fabian Reinwarth has been working at ZIB in the [FiLapp](https://www.zib.education/t3://page?uid=651) project since July 2026. The project is developing an app that makes it possible to assess and foster how well disadvantaged adolescents handle money in everyday life. In his doctoral research, he studies how scientific knowledge can be translated into professional decisions and anchored there, with a focus on communicating research evidence to professionals in education. Specifically, he further develops transfer formats such as plain language summaries and investigates which characteristics they can have in order to convey scientific knowledge efficiently, and how AI can be used to evaluate and produce them.
