Focusing Expertise - Shaping the Future
In the Jülich Aachen Research Alliance (JARA), RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich pool their outstanding expertise in five research sections, a JARA-Center and four JARA-Instituts.These common efforts open up new research opportunities and facilitate projects that would not be attainable for either of the partners on their own. Furthermore, their attention is always focused on the grand challenges facing society.

The German Research Foundation DFG has decided to provide continued funding for the Collaborative Research Center “Structural and Chemical Atomic Complexity – From Defect Phase Diagrams to Material Properties”. Led by JARA-ENERGY Scientist Prof. Sandra Korte-Kerzel, researchers are designing new materials at the atomic scale.
