Arno Ehresmann represents Hessian top research network ProLOEWE

The Vice President of the University of Kassel, Prof. Dr. Arno Ehresmann, was yesterday evening (October 6) in Frankfurt as the new directorate spokesman of the network of LOEWE research projects ProLOEWE. ProLOEWE unites research centers and research priorities of the funding program LOEWE, with which the state of Hesse has been setting science policy impulses since 2008 and thus aims to strengthen the Hessian research landscape.

Ehresmann succeeds Prof. Dr. Dr. hc Volker Mosbrugger, who will henceforth be deputy spokesman of the Directorate.

Ehresmann (50), an experimental physicist, is regarded as a strong researcher and experienced in the administration of large research projects. Among other things, he is the coordinator of the LOEWE priority "Electron Dynamics of Chiral Systems (ELCH)". He has been vice president of the University of Kassel since October 1. Ehresmann previously served as deputy ProLOEWE spokesperson. His term is one year.

"ProLOEWE shows the full range of research strength in Hesse. In the future, I look forward to helping at the helm of the network to make top Hessian research visible and to promote exchange between scientists in our state," Ehresmann said.

Mosbrugger drew a positive balance of his approximately three years in office: "LOEWE is a unique state program. We founded ProLOEWE to intensify cooperation among ourselves and to jointly inform the public about the research that this state funding makes possible and drives forward. We have successfully pursued this goal with, among other things, the website www.proloewe.de, joint publications, and the regular participation of LOEWE research projects at Hessentag."

LOEWE is a state program to promote cutting-edge research at Hessian universities and research institutions. The ProLOEWE network unites eleven LOEWE centers and 35 LOEWE focal points with a total of more than 1,800 employees.
