The well-attended inaugural lecture by Prof. Dr. Matthias Braun – Professor of (Social) Ethics at the Faculty of Protestant Theology in Bonn since October 2022 – was entitled "Vulnerable Bodies. Critique of Life Forms in the Face of Emerging Technologies". Singer Daria Assmus from Cologne and guitarist Marco Silvestri accompanied the event with music.
Following the welcoming address by Dean Richter and Prof. Braun's lecture, visitors were invited to enjoy food and drinks in mild temperatures on the terrace of the International Forum.
A recording of the inaugural lecture is available on the University of Bonn's YouTube channel.
