Nachwuchsförderung in wissenschaftlich aufstrebenden Ländern
Mehr als 70 Partnergruppen gibt es derzeit weltweit. Dabei handelt es sich um ein Instrument zur gemeinsamen Förderung von Nachwuchswissenschaftlerinnen und -wissenschaftlern mit Ländern, die an einer Stärkung ihrer Forschung durch internationale Kooperation interessiert sind. Hierzu zählen wissenschaftlich aufstrebende Länder wie beispielsweise Indien, China, mittel- und osteuropäische Staaten sowie Länder Lateinamerikas.
Partnergruppen werden jeweils mit einem Institut im Ausland eingerichtet. Voraussetzung hierfür ist, dass exzellente Nachwuchsforschende (Postdocs) zunächst an einem der Max-Planck-Institute gearbeitet haben. Eine Partnergruppe kann dann entstehen, wenn die Nachwuchskräfte im Anschluss an ein leistungsfähiges und angemessen ausgestattetes Labor in ihrem Herkunftsland zurückkehren und dort an einem Thema weiterforschen, welches auch im Interesse des zuvor gastgebenden Max-Planck-Instituts ist.
Die Partnergruppen werden für eine Laufzeit von maximal fünf Jahren eingerichtet.
