EXC The Martian Mindset

Carina Litfin is a doctoral researcher in the DFG-funded project “Human-Agent Teams in Extreme Environments” as part of the Cluster of Excellence “The Martian Mindset.”

The EXC focuses on the development of a sustainability paradigm. The extreme conditions on Mars are used to gain insights into the sustainable and efficient production of enough-to-use materials and parts. Human resources will also be scarce, which is why the development and investigation of effective collaboration between humans and agents in high-risk environments is a central component of this research project. We investigate teamwork and team performance in human-agent teams in extreme environments as well as in normal and exceptional situations.
