Group Internal Grants

Network funds for short-term collaborations:

In order to foster interdisciplinarity and scientific independence, we will provide an infrastructure for networking and exchange between the members of the two groups of early career researchers, doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, and also across the two groups and across the different areas of the CRC.

Doctoral researchers can profit personally and scientifically from interaction with postdocs. But postdocs can also profit from exchange with the doctoral researchers and gain initial experience in supervising PhD candidates. Postdocs can expand their scientific networks and gain visibility in the international scientific community.

 

Short-term stay abroad funds:

In order to foster international collaborations, we offer funding for short-term stays of 3 monthsfor doctoral and postdoctoral researchers in order to enable them to establish a research collaboration with colleagues at international universities or to complement their qualification. Each short-term stay should be coordinated with the principalinvestigators of the respective research project and the supervisor (in the case of doctoral researchers). The application should include a detailed description of the planned activities as well as confirmation from a researcher at the receiving institution.

Group External Grants

Short-term Fellowships:

In order to integrate young international researchers into the projects of this Collaborative Research Centre, we apply for three short-term fellowships for international postdoctoral researchers or doctoral researchers from abroad who apply with their own project ideas related to the research focus of the CRC. Every year, we will offer 3 four months fellowships (12 months in sum). Ideally, there should be one fellowship per year related to each sub area of the CRC.
