Viele Porträtbilder von Menschen nebeneinander

In addition to the ongoing availability of individual grants for researchers from abroad, the DFG is now also offering professorships and Mercator Fellow positions in Collaborative Research Centres, Transregios and Clusters of Excellence under the Global Minds Initiative Germany initiated by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR). 

Mitigating Bias in Scientific Evaluation and Decision-Making Processes

E-Learning now also available in English

Every individual is biased in different ways and to varying degrees. Even in research, which per se strives for facts and evidence, bias cannot be ruled out. The DFG's new e-learning course provides training to mitigate bias. 

The DFG cordially invites everyone interested to participate.
