Events of the SFB 833

The SFB 833 has been well networked in the scientific community. The constant exchange with scientists of our main field of research as well as adjacent fields of research has been of great importance to us.

Conferences & Workshops

Throughout its existence, the SFB 833 has therefore organized or co-organized a large number of smaller and larger conferences and workshops on various topics.

Invited Speakers

Furthermore, we were able to welcome numerous national and international colleagues as guest lecturers - some of them even several times. Our SFB Colloquium, to which we invited renowned researchers related to the entire SFB, took place twice per semester. In addition, our individual projects also organized a large number of guest lectures.
