Germany’s largest research funding organisation, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, elected eight new members to its Senate at its general assembly in Bonn.

The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft is to establish 11 new Collaborative Research Centres with total funding of £75.5 million over the next four years.

Researchers can now get information about publishing via open access from a website funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.
