A Workshop on Microscopy Applications in Materials Research
Creating opportunities of Networking for early Researchers with Germany
By IIT Hyderabad in association with DAAD New Delhi
India and Germany have a strong presence in the domain of materials research. Advances in microscopy techniques have led to cutting edge research in the development of novel materials and technology.
The workshop CONWERGE (Creating Opportunities of NetWorking for Early Researchers with Germany) aims to create a platform for early researchers in India and Germany to share their work in this fascinating field and initiate long term collaborations.
The theme of this workshop is “Microscopy applications in materials research” where research scholars from India and Germany will present their work. It will help them identify areas of mutual interest and can initiate fruitful collaborations. The workshop will also include a DAAD scholarship information session, keynote talks by Dr. K.G. Pradeep, IIT Madras and Prof. Christian Kuebel from KIT Germany and Alumni interactions.

The symposium guarantees diverse and insightful perspectives on different topics by nearly 40 presenters. For details, refer to the ECRS 2024 Programme.
About the symposium
Jointly organised by the DAAD and its partner organisations, the symposium will offer an excellent opportunity to early career researchers to showcase their work in the overarching subject of Cross-Border Mobility. It aims to recognise and facilitate synergies amongst researchers and exchange of ideas in the wider fields of humanities and social sciences. It will offer a wide spectrum of inter- and multidisciplinary topics on cross-border mobility by engaging early career scholars, junior researchers, research fellows and academics. If you belong to this target group, then this symposium is an ideal platform to help you engage with experts from the subject field.
The topic of the symposium Cross-Border Mobility is a term witnessing and gaining rapid momentum in our society in recent times. This collaborative symposium is dedicated to creating opportunities and synergies for young and budding researchers to not only share their research approaches but also to promote knowledge exchange and collaboration within the research community. During the symposium the selected early career researchers will present their research work to an international audience and discuss with experts.
The symposium addresses a wide spectrum of inter- and multidisciplinary topics of cross-border mobility with the focus on five distinct fields of inquiry:
- Refugees and Irregular Migration
- Law and Migration
- Narratives of Migration
- Migration and Education
- Labour Migration (incl. Health)

Societal Transformations for a Resilient Future
8 Sep 2022
The symposium aimed to recognise and facilitate synergies amongst researchers and exchange of ideas in the wider fields of humanities and social sciences. It offered a wide spectrum of inter- and multidisciplinary topics on resilient societies by engaging early career scholars, junior researchers, research fellows and academics.
Resilience – a term often highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic and in current debates surrounding the impact of climate change and violent conflict – constitutes a highly ambiguous concept, one that nevertheless forms one of the most important needs for societies, impacting international conflict and cooperation, national and local politics, individual and household behavior as well as social interaction.
The topics covered were:
- (Public) Health, Bodies and Emotions
- Poverty, Inequality and Development
- Sustainability and Ecological Crises
- Governance, Institutions, State-building and State Failure
- Crisis, Conflict, Violence and Trauma
- Urbanity and Urbanisation
The German Academic Exchange Service, the Max Weber Forum for South Asian Studies and ICAS:MP Metamorphosis of the Political thank all the experts, scholars and students involved.
