Researcher Groups
The IZKF offers an attractive funding possibility for ambitious scientists with outstanding achievements through its research groups: The research groups are assigned to an institute or department and independently work there. Each group has an annual budget of 200.000 euros.
The heads of the groups possess excellent scientific qualifications, experience in acquiring external funding. They have been selected by the IZKF chair after an internal and external reviewing on the basis of their scientific excellence, strategic fitting accuracy and their potential to strengthen the faculty´s research focus areas.
On 1st of January 2019 three IZKF research groups have begun work:
