Mercator Fellows
DFG Description: Mercator fellowships enable intensive, long-term project-based collaboration between researchers from both domestic and foreign institutions. Although Mercator Fellows are on-site for only part of the project, they remain in contact with the project team members once their research stay is over. Foreign Mercator Fellowship holders are awarded the title of Mercator Fellows in recognition of their dedication.

|---|---|---|
| Prof. J. Ilja Siepmann | University of Minnesota (UMN), USA | Molecular modelling, computational design of porous materials, adsorption & chromatography |
| Prof. Sara Skrabalak | Indiana University (IU), USA | New synthetic methods for nanoparticles including noble metal alloys with defined shapes and architecture |
