Max Planck Scientists from Jena on “Fact Finding Mission“ in Slovenia

Axel Mithöfer and Jost Lavric from the Jena Max Planck Institutes for Chemical Ecology and for Biogeochemistry were among a delegation of scientists in the Max Planck Society who followed an invitation by the Slovenian Ministry of Science. They traveled to Ljubljana on April 2-3, 2014, where they met with representatives of the Slovenian research infrastructure to discuss possible future cooperation.
The specific goal of these meetings was to prepare the basis for EU-funded Teaming or Twinning projects. Such projects support the development of the research infrastructure in structurally weak regions by cooperating with research partners from well established institutions.
