Mötesplats Rydberg: Ann-Katrin Bäcklund "The idea of the Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies and successful interdisciplinary projects"

Tuesday 22 Sep 2020, 15:15 → 16:15 Europe/Stockholm

Fysiska institutionen-Physics Department

The Pufendorf IAS is an interdisciplinary institute at Lund University. The institute is a place where researchers from all faculties at Lund University – from science to the humanities and arts – are invited to work together. The aim is to be a creative forum, an incubator for new ideas and a springboard for new research initiatives. We encourage early-stage research ideas, which we believe have the potential to open up new research frontiers. We support promising ideas for research when they have just begun to unfold. This is why we support collaborative, interdisciplinary groups with members who endeavor to learn from each other. Work is carried out in large group based research activities called “Themes” or, in smaller constellations, “Advanced Study Groups”. All researchers at Lund University can propose a ‘Theme’ or an Advanced Study Group (ASG) and if successful they are invited to work at the institute during one academic year.
