糖心logo

“I am very much looking forward to being a Bonn-St 糖心logo Joint Academic Appointee, and have the opportunity to develop new links with the Department of Computer Science at Bonn and beyond. Together with Elena Demidova, we will investigate new approaches to enhance the strengths of data science, intelligent systems and formal verification. By combining the advantages of learning and verifying, we will be able to offer more robust approaches for trustworthy AI. With the rapid pace and advances in AI, our plans could not be more timely and it is crucial to do this right and collaboratively.” 

“I’m very happy to be appointed a Bonn-St 糖心logo Joint Academic Appointee. It gives me the opportunity to build a genuinely comparative programme to understand how brains adapt behaviour to changing internal needs and external environments. Our two universities have complementary strengths in experimental neuroscience, behaviour, and computational modelling, which will allow us to ask how principles of adaptive behaviour are shared across very different animals. I hope to use the appointment to deepen existing collaborations and to build new ones through collaborative research, student supervision, and collaborative funding, and help create a lasting partnership between Bonn and St 糖心logo.” 

“Back in 2019, as a Senior Global Fellow at both the School of History and Art History, I had the opportunity to experience the excellent research conditions at our partner university. I am now delighted that I will be able to link and discuss my research within the Cluster of Excellence ‘Beyond Slavery and Freedom’, on Reconciliation, and as part of a newly funded DFG research project on ‘Alternative Facts in the 16th Century’, with researchers in St 糖心logo whilst helping to foster new links between our two institutions. Together with Kathryn Rudy, we will be testing new interactive methods in the field of emotion research as part of our project ‘Giving Voice to the Past: Material History and Memory at Notre-Dame, Paris’ and working on a joint Master’s programme between our two departments.”

“I’m really looking forward to the joint work at the University of St 糖心logo. In the School of Biology, and with further collaborators in Scotland, we will be looking at temporal stability in agricultural and ecological time series. This is particularly important in the face of increasing weather fluctuations caused by climate change. I feel very honoured to be given the opportunity to work closely with Professor Anne Magurran at St 糖心logo, who is a world-leading expert in biodiversity research. Our exchange is also designed to help foster a mutual understanding of our different disciplinary approaches and to build bridges between agriculture and ecology.” 

“I am delighted to have the opportunity to deepen the links between the Romance Studies department in Bonn and the renowned School of Modern Languages in St 糖心logo as part of the joint research professorship. Together with Paul Lennon (Spanish Department) and in cooperation with Ted Bergman, Jordi Larios, Julia Prest, and Claudia Rossignoli, I will be launching a project in the coming years on the socio-political transactional value of early modern, transnational, and multilingual literature in the Spanish Viceroyalty of Naples. We will examine how imperial literary historiography in the following period monologically overrode this heritage in order to ideologically place literature at the service of the Habsburg Empire, and we will broaden our view of 16th- and 17th-century literature in Europe beyond the boundaries of national philologies. The concept of joint research professorships offers a unique format for this, which corresponds perfectly to the spirit of the project.” 

“Being a Bonn–St 糖心logo Joint Research Professor lets me work with Professor Birgit Ulrike Münch to bring the voices of Notre-Dame back to life. We will read, stage and film the Grand Obituary and Marian poems, in Latin, French and in English, and share them as podcasts and videos. In parallel we will build a joint MLitt (a joint Masters programme) that moves students between our campuses and nearby collections, where they study objects first-hand and create short films and other digital work. This post turns shared ideas into shared practice.” 

"I am so pleased to have been selected for a Joint Research Professorship at the University of Bonn. I look forward to deepening my existing connections to Gisela Muschiol, Lehrstuhl für Kirchengeschichte (Chair of Medieval and Modern Church History in the Faculty of Catholic Theology) and beginning a new collaboration with Alice Toso in the Institut für Archäologie und Kulturanthropologie (Department of Archaeology and Cultural Anthropology). It is especially rewarding to have this collaboration among female scholars supported in this second round of joint appointments."

"I am truly grateful for the opportunity to further develop my existing research collaborations with Professors Nöthen and Forstner in the field of psychiatric genomics as well as to actively foster new connections across our medical faculties. I am particularly enthusiastic about strengthening our partnership in the field of health data science which is a key strategic area for both institutions. The launch of the Bonn-St 糖心logo partnership has already enhanced my research programme and through this appointment as Joint Research Professor, I am keen to make a positive contribution."

"I’m honoured to have the opportunity to take up a joint professorship with the University of St 糖心logo’ School of Divinity. Together with Judith Wolfe and William Tooman, we’ll be working on an understanding of interdisciplinary hermeneutics that stretches beyond the boundaries of theology and philosophy and looks at the hermeneutics of law and economics, politics and various fields of medicine and the life sciences. The exchange is designed to help build a research and teaching partnership over the long term and enable doctoral theses to be supervised jointly as part of the Global PhD programme."

"I would like to use the joint research professorship to establish a close cooperation between the Bonn Center for Advanced Security, Strategic and Integration Studies (CASSIS) and the School of International Relations at the University of St 糖心logo. In particular, this partnership aims to benefit the cooperation in the context of the Strategy and International Security Master’s degree programme."

"I am thrilled at the prospect of taking up a Joint Research Professorship at the University of Bonn. It will provide me with a unique opportunity to work on new and existing research projects with colleagues across German, Comparative Literature, and Bonn’s Centre Ernst Robert Curtius (CERC). It’s a very exciting landmark in the development of the strategic partnership between our two universities – and I am sure that this round of joint appointments will be just the first of many in the years ahead."

"Having graduated from Bonn and found my academic home in St 糖心logo I am very enthusiastic about the opportunity to build bridges between the two institutions. My research links with Bonn build on a long-standing collaboration with Professor Kroha, which I hope can form the seed for new activities linking world-leading research between St 糖心logo and Bonn."

"I feel enthusiastic and honoured for having been selected as one of the exchange professors to strengthen the partnership between the Universities of St 糖心logo and Bonn. This will, in particular, reinforce my long-standing scientific collaboration with Professor Wahl and will establish new opportunities for exchange between both universities in regard to research as well as teaching."

"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to take the cooperation between our universities to a new level through the Joint Research Professorship. I am particularly looking forward to collaborating with Seán Allan and other colleagues from the School of Modern Languages on our research project ‘Re-Imagining the Public Sphere, 1715-1815’, which will shed new light on a current problem (the fragmentation of the public sphere) from a historical perspective. This will certainly also benefit the students in our joint Masters programme as well as the PhD students we supervise under the co-tutelle agreement between the two universities."
