'Post-Lindau Tour' visits SoMaS Summer School 2015
DFG delegation with junior scientists from India and Thailand visiting the SoMaS Summer School.
At this year’s Summer School we received an honorable visit: A delegation of Thai and Indian junior scientists, who took a tour through German universities and scientific centers organized by the German Research Foundation (DFG), participated for a day and half in our programme. In the Alsatian town of Mittelwihr they experienced the international atmosphere within the research training group and could get an insight into the activities of our graduate school. The scientific and intercultural exchange was at the focus of this visit: The researchers engaged in stimulating discussions which also included the topic of future cooperation between Asia and Europe. We really enjoyed this inspiring encounter and hope our guests did too.
Dr. Franziska Langer from the DFG thanked Prof. Günter Reiter and the IRTG SoMaS for the support in preparing and conducting this visiting programme.
