Paper pitches joint positions, academic cooperation and diversity as ways to raise German capital’s profile
Berlin’s non-university research institutes have published a position paper laying out how the city could become a top science location by exploiting collaboration and interdisciplinary research.
The paper was published ahead of Germany’s national election and the vote for the Berlin house of representatives on 26 September. The collective of scientific institutes, known as the Berlin Research 50 (BR50), was founded last year to promote and coordinate the work of non-university research organisations in Germany’s capital.
