Nine transCampus research projects receive TUD funding
The transCampus funding program strengthens the cooperation between King's College London and Technische Universität Dresden with specific support for initiatives that introduce or expand diverse forms of cooperation.
This year, nine outstanding projects were selected, which enlarge the transCampus while deepening the academic partnership between the two universities. The cooperation in medicine is intensifying further, for example with two projects at the CRTD research center. In addition, TU Dresden supports new transCampus projects in the fields of neurology, psychology and dermatology for the first time in the funding period of 2022. Moreover, joint studies will be carried out in business education and work psychology, which will expand the cooperation started last year.
Of particular note is the high proportion of female scientists in the project proposals submitted. The transCampus thus not only makes a fundamental contribution to the scientific career advancement of women at the TUD, its primary goal is to facilitate initial research results for further third-party funding, as well as to support initial collaborations between innovative scientists. With the integration of new transCampus professors, the projects experience a sustainable implementation and lay the foundation for a successful collaboration that will further advance the international visibility of both partners.
Specific content on the projects will soon be available in a more detailed listing of funded projects at https://tu-dresden.de/tu-dresden/internationales/transcampus .
