Research Links

Large parts of the research within the Research Unit 1736 "UCaHS" required collaborative, coherent, and thus co-ordinated efforts between two, multiple or all partners. Each sub-project was associated to a Research Module. Collaborative research taking place within individual Research Modules or the entire Research Unit was organised into Research Links and Clusters
