Second funding period of Research Training Group approved

Written by

Congratulations! The German Research Foundation (DFG) is once again funding a Research Training Groups (RTG) at MLU with around four million euros. This will enable the successful training of doctoral students from the fields of chemistry, physics, biochemistry and mathematics.

The Research Training Group “Beyond Amphiphilicity: Self-Organization of Soft Matter Via Multiple Noncovalent Interactions (GRK 2670)” is investigating a fundamental organizing principle for molecules: amphiphilicity. This is the property of substances to be soluble in both fat and water. Soap is a common example. In nature, amphiphilicity occurs as a universal building principle of molecules. It is often extended by giving molecules an additional charge or another atom. This creates interactions between the molecules that make complex structures such as proteins and polymers possible in the first place.

[PROTEOFORuM] Workshop – Getting Started. The path to a successful doctorate (July 14, 2025)

Written by

This workshop is organized by the iRTG PROTEOFORuM.

The workshop ‘Getting Started. The path to a successful doctorate’ focuses on the critical elements for a successful doctoral journey: Which mindsets, tools, and processes make a real difference on the way to a PhD? We concentrate on three areas: The efficient organization of tasks and notes, the productive communication with supervisors and the research community, and the structured reading and writing of academic papers. Additionally, the workshop will introduce techniques for self-management to support productivity and well-being throughout the PhD journey. The specific agenda will be tailored to the interests of the participants to ensure the content is relevant and particular emphasis will be placed on strategies for participants to successfully transfer learnings from this workshop to their own work context.
