Fostering Collaboration across all MCQST Research Areas

The Principal Investigators and members of the Scientific Advisory Board meet in a dedicated internal forum designed to strengthen the scientific fabric of the cluster. These meeting provide a space for a forward-looking exchange across disciplines, bringing together expertise from different research areas to spark new ideas and perspectives. At the core of the gathering is the presentation and discussion of ongoing research, emerging challenges, and future directions.

A key objective of the meeting is to foster meaningful connections within the cluster. Through structured discussions and informal interactions alike, new synergies can emerge—whether in the form of joint projects, shared methodologies, or novel research questions that benefit from interdisciplinary input.
