Young research delegation from India and Thailand

The German Research Foundation organizes an annual information tour for young researchers from India and Thailand on the days following their participation at the Nobel laureate meeting in Lindau. This is their second visit to the Physics department at the Philipps-Universität Marburg.

21 young researchers (students to postdocs) from India and 5 from Thailand were selected by their national committees (Department of Science & Technology of India and National Science and Technology Development Agency in Thailand) to attend the annual Nobel Laureate meeting in Lindau. This year the focus in Lindau was on Physics and Marburg was happy to host the participants on their information tour which included visits to the Peter Grünberg Institute at Forschungszentrum Jülich and the MPI for Gravitational Physics.

Professor Höfer, spokesperson of SFB 1083, gave a lecture introducing the scientific background before the delegation visited laboratories at the Renthof-location of the Physics department and had opportunity to meet and discuss their research with young research staff from SFB 1083.
