The fundamental idea of the Thinface training network was to promote research into sustainable, more efficient and economical energy solutions.
By Birgit Baustädter In the last four years, 14 young scientists worked in the field of advanced materials across Europe in the training network Thinface and are now completing their cross-border doctoral degrees. Joint research and international collaboration are the main cornerstones on which the work which is intensively promoted by TU Graz is built. Recently a Europewide project was brought to a successful conclusion with the centrestage involvement of TU Graz's Institute of Solid State Physics - . Thinface is a European training network which was initiated by the European research network PCAM (Physics and Chemistry of Advanced Materials). Thinface enabled 14 young scientists from all over the world to work together on a topic in a multidisciplinary way and to each further their own PhD thesis at a European university. The programme was funded by the EU funding scheme Marie Sklodowska¬Curie Actions. Two of these aspiring scientists have since taken up their jobs at TU Graz.
