- Title
German public–private partnership breaks ground.
- Abstract
The article offers information on the partnership of public and private German institutes to establish an institution for cognitive neuroscience in Frankfurt, Germany. It reports that Max Planck Society (MPS) will be founding a new institute using private money worth $317 million together with partners Andreas and Thomas Strüngmann, who both signed an agreement with MPS on July 15, 2008. The name of the new institute is Ernst Strüngmann Institute, which is named after the father of Strüngmann brothers. According to Wolf Singer, director of the Max Planck Institute and provisional head of the new institute, although public-private research is not a well established concept in the country, still he hopes that the research will become a common practice.
