FORTHEM promotes the internationalization of research

Nine universities from all over Europe are collaborating in the FORTHEM Alliance. Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGUI) is one of them. To extend the scope of joint research in FORTHEM, the alliance has adopted the concepts and results of FIT FORTHEM, a three-year support project funded by the European Commission. These are at the core of the new FORTHEM Mission for Research, Innovation, and Transfer. In our JGU Magazine, Professor Stefan Müller-Stach, JGU Vice President for Research and Early Career Academics, looks into the future of this mission and describes the various opportunities to participate and profit from the alliance – opportunities that Veronika Cummings, Professor of Human Geography at JGU, has already taken advantage of.
