An engineering approach to biology

In our "EXplained" video series, we introduce the seven Clusters of Excellence with which our university will enter the next funding phase of the Excellence Competition. First up is the new cluster BioSysteM, represented by TUM biophysicist Prof. Friedrich Simmel.

🎯 The OSC is proud to have consulted for 6 out of the 7 successfully funded Clusters of Excellence applications at LMU!
🤝 We are especially excited to continue working with the Munich Cluster for Systems Neurology (SyNergy) and the Excellence Cluster ORIGINS, both Funding Institutional Members of the OSC.
🎉 Congratulations to everyone involved in this monumental application effort. We look forward to supporting more research that’s not only excellent, but also open and transparent.

TUM in the running with three new Cluster of Excellence proposals

The Technical University of Munich (TUM) has already been successful three times in all funding lines of the Excellence Initiative (2006, 2012) and the Excellence Strategy (2019) of the German federal and state governments. Now, it is setting the course for the funding program for top German universities for a fourth time: TUM is participating with three initiatives for new Clusters of Excellence, which have successfully prevailed in the pre-selection by an international panel of experts appointed by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and are now invited to submit full proposals.
