Research Information Systems
GEPRIS – German Project Information System
The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft e.V. (DFG, German Research Foundation) has been providing information about its funded research projects on its GEPRIS database for over 25 years. The topic-based search filters and bilingual responsive user surface of GEPRIS enable access to details of projects and the individuals and institutions involved. The texts, such as the project description and summaries of final reports, are written by the applicants themselves. The updated new version of GEPRIS that will be released in July 2026 will include information about the project participants’ research institutions in addition to their current known address. Furthermore, involvement of national and international partners and institutions, including temporary involvement, will also be shown.

GEPRIS Historisch – Research funding between 1920 and 1945
“GEPRIS Historisch” is the DFG’s comprehensive information portal dedicated to the history of research and also the DFG itself between 1920 and 1945.
The online content comprises approximately 50,000 approved and rejected funding proposals submitted by more than 13,000 applicants. The portal is based on data that the historian Sören Flachowsky from Berlin identified in the context of his DFG-funded research group. Between 2006 and 2012, thousands of records from the Federal Archive and other sources were analysed for this purpose. Further sources were used by the DFG staff to enrich this data. Users of the system are invited to explore. The topic pages about various aspects of early funding activities are a good starting point. The information system is in German.
