Four WE Heraeus – Lorentz workshops in 2026

During the evaluation round in May, no fewer than four proposals were selected as WE Heraeus – Lorentz workshops in 2026.

We congratulate the authors of the winning proposals and are looking forward to organizing the following exciting workshops:

Funding

A WE Heraeus – Lorentz workshop is fully funded by the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus-Foundation. This funding includes hotel and lunch to all participants and travel refunds for selected participants. 

 

In January 2024, the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus-Foundation and the Lorentz Center started a collaboration. In this framework one or more workshops will be organized at the Lorentz Center, within the area of physics (in the broadest sense).
You can find more information about the collaboration here.
