About the SFB 1313 Mercator Fellowship

Mercator Fellowships enable an 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 are associated to the project and remain in contact with the project team members once their research stay is over. With this collaboration, additional competence is to be gained for the project or the network and for increasing the project's visibility. The engagement of Mercator Fellows is more intensive than that of scientific guests.
