<b>Hanrieder Research Fellowship at the MPI for Physics</b><br>
<br>
There is almost no other scientific research community that has such
a strong international network as basic research in physics. The
reason for this becomes clear when one looks at experiments
currently being conducted in the field of particle physics. In order
to realize large-scale projects such as the LHC particle accelerator
or observatories such as the CTA, experimental physicists need to
coordinate their efforts worldwide and pool their interests. At the
same time, theoretical physicists all over the world are working
together to research basic open questions about the foundations of
our universe and their interactions.<br>
<br>
We want to make every effort to support this global collaboration.
With the Hanrieder Research Fellowship, researchers at the start of
their scientific career are supported. We focus on talented young
scientists from countries in Latin America in order to help them
gain valuable international research experience. At the same time,
our institute will benefit from new perspectives and fresh ideas
coming from the students.<br>
<br>
<b>Our focus: students from Latin America</b><br>
<br>
The fellowship program is directed at doctoral researchers who are
working in Latin America on a topic with links to the research
conducted at the Max Planck Institute for Physics (MPP). Interested
Master students are given the opportunity to complete a Hanrieder
Research Internship at the MPP. Both groups may spend up to six
months at the MPP. An excellent command of the English language is
required.<br>
<br>
The Institute is one of the most highly respected research
facilities for basic research in the field of physics, and covers a
wide range of topics in theoretical and experimental physics. We ask
interested students to get in touch with the scientist named for
each topic to discuss suitable research topics.<br>
<br>
The program is complementary to the PhD studies offered in the Max
Planck Research School on Elementary Particle Physics (IMPRS EPP) in
co-operation with the Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU) and the
Technical University of Munich (TUM). All information relevant for
students interested in a PhD position can be found at IMPRS EPP.<br>

<b>Hanrieder Foundation for Excellence</b><br>
<br>
The Hanrieder Foundation for Excellence was established in 2015 by
Dr. Wolfgang Hanrieder under the auspices of the Max Planck
Foundation. One of its aims is to support outstanding junior
scientists in gaining valuable experience at leading research
centers abroad, and thus to promote the international exchange of
excellence.<br>
<br>
Whether these talents go into the world from a Max Planck background
or whether, coming from far away, they become acquainted with this
globally unique organization for basic research, they are to receive
support in experiencing new perspectives, establishing contacts, and
thus in setting the foundations for a successful international
career.<br>
<br>
For the first project grant to be awarded within the framework of a
Research Fellowship, the founder and doctor of physics Wolfgang
Hanrieder selected the Max Planck Institute of Physics (MPP) in
Munich.<br>
