The Helmholtz Association<\/strong><\/a> of German Research Centers was created in 1995 to formalise existing relationships between several globally-renowned independent research centers. The Helmholtz Association distributes core funding from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) to its 18 autonomous research centers and evaluates their effectiveness against the highest international standards. The Forschungszentrum J\u00fclich is one of them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Deutsche ForschungsGesellschaft<\/strong><\/a> (DFG) is the self-governing organisation for science and research in Germany. It serves all branches of science and the humanities. In organizational terms, the DFG is an association under private law. Its membership consists of German research universities, non-university research institutions, scientific associations and the Academies of Science and the Humanities. The DFG receives the large majority of its funds from the federal government and the states, which are represented in all grants committees. At the same time, the voting system and procedural regulations guarantee science-driven decisions. The ER-C regularly receives funding from the DFG for scientific projects. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Volkswagen Foundation<\/strong><\/a>, based in Hanover, is a non-profit-making foundation established under private law in 1961. The Foundation owes its existence to a treaty between the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany and the State of Lower Saxony. The Foundation is not affiliated to the car manufacturer of the same name, but independent and autonomous in its decisions. It is dedicated to the support of the humanities and social sciences as well as science and technology in higher education and research. It funds research projects in path-breaking areas and provides assistance to academic institutions for the improvement of the structural conditions for their work like the development of the first Aberration Corrected Transmission Electron Microscope at the ER-C.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
