(03.07.17) The Research in Germany initiative will be present at the 46th IUPAC World Chemistry Congress in Sao Paulo, to be held from 9th to 14th July at the World Trade Center.

At the Research in Germany booth, representatives of the German Research Foundation (DFG) will provide information and individual consultation on research opportunities such as summer schools, post-graduate and PhD courses, post-doc positions, scientific cooperation as well as fellowships and funding programs.

Together with the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, the DFG will also promote a Science Lunch at the congress, to be held on July 11th, from 12:35 to 14:20 at Sala São Paulo.

In the event, five researchers from different German institutions will give an insight into the country’s research landscape and present their own research work. Following an introduction of the scientists and brief presentations of the participating funding organizations, attendees will have the chance to mingle in different groups, chat on a one-to-one basis and seek in-depth advice in a relaxed atmosphere.
