Connecting with other centers of research

ICMS allies with universities all over the world. The trigger to initiate these valuable connections are numerous. Complementarity, common interest to overcome scientific hurdles, inspiring each other and educating researchers via e.g. exchange programs are a few of the drivers for collaborating with others.

Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research

The Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany and ICMS have a close and successful scientific collaboration in the field of materials science. Both organizations benefit from complementary infrastructure and views on materials science and continuously search for opportunities to jointly advance materials science. We enable our young and talented researchers to combine chemistry, materials, physics, biology, mathematics, and molecular engineering to address a few of the world鈥檚 most important scientific and societal challenges.
