RESIST is international

We are pleased that RESIST is so international: numerous people in our RESIST team come from other countries and/or work with colleagues in institutions around the world. In addition, RESIST has launched the new research partnership HAGIS together with the University of Glasgow Centre for Virus Research (CVR). Furthermore, many international students are active in RESIST working groups. Some RESIST researchers are even among the most cited scientists worldwide. Please feel free to read more about this on this page.

RESIST and the world

The members of the RESIST Scientific Advisory Board are from Germany, Sweden, USA, France and the UK.
Our communication is mostly in English, also at the RESIST seminars and symposia, whose speakers are also guests from abroad.
RESIST researchers participate in the “Lower Saxony International Summer Academy in Immunology” (LISA), RESIST also sponsors internships.
For the students of the Master’s programme “Biomedical Data Science“, no distance is too far to learn.

RESIST lives internationally

There are about 30 different nationalities in RESIST, about a quarter of RESIST members have a nationality other than German. You can find a nice RESIST Newsletter article about this here, starting on page 2.
RESIST professor Dr Marco Galardini has joined the RESIST team directly from abroad, as have numerous students.
Several RESIST researchers are among the most cited scientists in the world.

RESIST connects countrys

Numerous RESIST researchers maintain diverse international collaborations and are active in international networks. For example, they are involved in research consortia of the European Union.

RESIST creates international relations

RESIST, together with the MRC-University of Glasgow Centre for Viral Research (CVR) team, has created the Hannover Glasgow Infection Strategy (HAGIS) scientific partnership to conduct joint research in the field of infectious diseases as well as provide an excellent training environment. The photo shows the HAGIS group in Glasgow.

RESIST supports international doctoral students

RESIST supports students who come from abroad to do their dissertations in RESIST working groups – for example, in the international programmes “Infection Biology” and “DEWIN”. In these programmes, 70 percent of the students are of non-German origin. All PhD students funded by RESIST participate in the PhD programmes of the Center for Infection Biology (ZIB). The photo shows PhD students of the class of 2022.
RESIST’s international junior researchers can take part in language courses organised specifically by RESIST to learn German. These German courses are very popular. The lecturer of these courses is Artur Sieg. You can read an article about the course in the RESIST newsletter on page 11.
