Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz focuses on research in clearly defined fields, thus making it a key player in the international arena. JGU is a comprehensive university that covers a wide range of disciplines. This lays the groundwork for competitive, quality-oriented processes for identifying interdisciplinary and innovative core research areas, which receive targeted support. With an executive committee comprising leading researchers based at both JGU and at non-university partner research institutes, the Gutenberg Research College (GRC)<\/a> serves as a central strategic instrument to promote cutting-edge research at JGU, continuously reviewing and modifying the university\u2019s areas of focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mainz-based particle physicists working in the PRISMA++ Cluster of Excellence<\/a> are among the world\u2019s leading researchers in their field. JGU is also a key player in various other research disciplines, such as the materials sciences, quantum and atomic physics, sustainable chemistry and polymer chemistry, the life sciences and translational medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within Germany\u2019s Excellence Strategy<\/strong> program, JGU is applying for funding under the Universities of Excellence funding line as part of the Rhine-Main Universities (RMU). JGU, Goethe University Frankfurt, and Technical University of Darmstadt submitted a joint proposal entitled \u201cRMU-EXCITE \u2013 Excellent. Collaborative.
