The sole purpose of the Foundation is the direct support of research and scholarship at universities and non-profit research institutions, primarily in Germany, with special emphasis on the support of young academics. The support of international cooperation is also one of the aims of the Foundation. These aims are reached through the support of specific projects which can be completed in a limited and predictable period of time in areas which have been selected by the Foundation.
