Nabtaplaya Institute

Located in Germany, the research institute of NabtaPlaya is founded according to the German Federal Law § 52 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 AO with the purpose of the association to promote science and research in the field of Space technology specifically in the analysis of Earth Observation Data. Data Science is at the core of our software innovation research by studying thousands of gigabytes of satellite data. We support basic research in the interest of the general public in the Space related downstream applications. The inspiration of the name 'NabtaPlaya' came from a historical story that relates to our research purposes of today. For thousands of years, ancient societies all around the world erected massive stone circles, aligning them with the sun and stars to mark the seasons. These early calendars foretold the coming of spring, summer, fall and winter, helping civilizations track when to plant and harvest crops. Located in Africa, Nabta Playa stands some 800 kilometers south of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. It was built more than years ago, making Nabta Playa the oldest stone circle in the world — and possibly Earth’s oldest astronomical observatory.

Open Music Europe

OpenMusE brings together music industry stakeholders and researchers from 10 EU countries and Ukraine. Our consortium recognises that placing European music ecosystems on a more competitive, fair, and sustainable footing requires evidence-based policymaking, business planning and accuracy. We provide the data needed for these actions. Using transparent methods and tools, OpenMusE maps the policy as well as the data landscape. The project bridges data gaps and empowers stakeholders and policymakers to take data-driven actions. Our project is grounded on principles of open policy analysis, open science, and open-source software development. We work with stakeholders to identify data gaps on the EU, national, and regional levels; co-create indicators and methods for bridging them; develop free software tools for data collection and analysis; and report our findings and every step taken to reach them. Using the OMO (Open Music Observatory) and our open-source software, music SMEs without technical departments or expertise will be able to access and analyse open data; model volume and value, including of zero-price uses; create better business models; and generate corporate social responsibility and sustainability reports; all at a fraction of current costs. We validate these tools in four pilot studies that will bring concrete benefits to stakeholders within the project lifespan.

Phd Research Training Group Meinbio

MeInBio is a structured PhD program (research training group) at the Medical, Biological and Technical Faculty of the Albert Ludwigs University Freiburg, Germany, and the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics Freiburg, Germany. In MeInBio Life Sciences meet Bioinformatics to understand gene regulation. Currently, 23 PhD students from all over the world work in 13 different research groups - both wet-laboratory and bioinformatics/ statistics groups - to advance the understanding of transcriptional control at high spatial and temporal resolution. Work at the research project is complemented by a specific qualification program like workshops, soft skills trainings and meet-ups. MeInBio is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) and aims at creating excellent conditions for PhD education and networking. All participating groups employ high-throughput sequencing approaches and high-resolution technology. Professional bioinformatics analysis of high-throughput sequencing data is currently both a quantitative and qualitative bottleneck in many laboratories. MeInBio hence aims to train PhD researchers in both wet-laboratory and bioinformatics approaches to overcome this shortage. Core of the concept is the creation of interdisciplinary research tandems to provide opportunity for wet-laboratory PhD researchers to gain a deeper understanding of bioinformatics know-how by joining a bioinformatics group. Bioinformatics PhD researchers in turn will gain knowledge about the molecular approaches used to generate big data sets. The structured training program of the RTG therefore specialises the PhD researchers for the specific demands of a growing job market, which needs combined bioinformatics and laboratory experience.

Planadapt

PlanAdapt is a global network-based organisation that provides knowledge services in support of economically just, socially inclusive and effective climate adaptation around the world. PlanAdapt approaches complex challenges through transdisciplinary mixed methods and engagement of doers and thinkers across the spheres of science, policy and practice. PlanAdapt focuses on a suite of advisory services that enable innovative and effective adaptation to climate impacts and manage climate-related risks. We are a group of ‘thinkers’, that conduct applied research and develop conceptual approaches for adaptation, and ‘doers’ in sectors and contexts where future climate risks matter. This mixture allows us to constantly calibrate our knowledge pool through balancing tacit, experience-based knowledge from our practitioners and explicit knowledge from research and theory. PlanAdapt brokers knowledge between the people, businesses, authorities that identify and feel climate risks and the ones that offer solutions and relevant information. Our mission is to develop and spread ‘good practice’ in climate change adaptation work that will always be inspired by and measured against positive impacts for people that suffer from and lose through the negative effects of climate change. In order to do so, we support public and private actors in effectively integrating climate risks into their strategies, processes and projects in relevant sectors, such as agriculture, forestry, water resource management, coastal protection, human development, energy, infrastructure, health, tourism. Our services are equally informed by science and practice, strongly believing that only a mix of both can solve the practical threats related to climate impacts.

Sparta Projekt

SPARTA (Society, Politics and Risk with Twitter Analysis) ist ein interdisziplinäres Forschungsprojekt der Universität der Bundeswehr München. Ziel des Projekts ist es, soziale Medien als wertvolle Datenquelle für gesellschaftliche und politische Forschung zugänglich zu machen. Soziale Medien bieten durch ihre Reichweite und Interaktivität einzigartige Einblicke in das politische Leben der Nutzer*innen, aber der Zugang zu diesen Daten ist oft stark eingeschränkt. Hier setzt SPARTA an: Unser Team aus Politikwissenschaft, Geschichte, Informatik und Data Science entwickelt eine Forschungsinfrastruktur auf Basis neuester Hardware und NLP-Technologien. Über Twitters RealTime PowerTrack und Historical PowerTrack Enterprise APIs sammeln wir große Datenmengen und können diese effektiv analysieren. Die Infrastruktur wird adaptiv weiterentwickelt und anhand zweier Anwendungsfälle getestet: Wahlen und Riots. Unsere Wahlforschung begann mit der Bundestagswahl 2021, gefolgt von den Landtagswahlen in NRW 2022 und Bayern 2023. Im nächsten Schritt werden wir die Bundestagswahl 2025 begleiten. Für die Analyse von Riots nutzen wir historische Daten, beginnend mit den Capitol Hill Riots von 2021. Mit SPARTA schaffen wir die Grundlagen, um soziale Medien als Forschungsquelle für gesellschaftliche und politische Entwicklungen nutzbar zu machen und diese in einem internationalen und überzeitlichen Kontext zu analysieren.

The Expert Council On Integration And Migration

The Expert Council on Integration and Migration is an independent body providing research-based policy advice. Its reports aim to assist those bodies responsible for integration and migration policy, as well as the general public, in their opinion-forming processes. Germany is a country of immigration. Integration and migration are thus key issues of the future which will continue to pose significant challenges to politics and society in the coming years. That is why the Federal Government took the decision on 2 December 2020 to establish the Expert Council on Integration and Migration. It will continue the work of the Expert Council of German Foundations on Integration and Migration (SVR), founded in 2008 as a consortium of private foundations. Under the charter establishing the Expert Council on Integration and Migration, it is tasked with - providing research-based information about trends, issues and evidence-based solutions in the fields of integration and migration, monitoring these trends and providing a neutral and methodologically sound assessment of them- providing actionable policy advice and taking a clear stance on current issues so as to be able to supply factual arguments for the public and political debate, objectivising information provided to the public and giving new impetus to the relevant debates for the benefit of politics at federal, federal state and local authority level, as well as civil society. The Expert Council on Integration and Migration is mandated with providing independent advice. Its assessments and evaluations are bound only by scientific criteria. It publishes all its statements, recommendations and reports.
