The German Research Foundation (DFG) establishes 13 additional Research Training Groups. DFG Research Training Groups offer doctoral candidates the opportunity to do their PhD in a structured research and qualification programme. Seven of the new research groups are international research training groups, building upon cooperations with the USA, Japan, Russia, India, Spain and South Korea. The new research groups are:
-"Complex Terrain and Ecological Heterogeneity" at the University of Bayreuth and the Kangwon National University, Korea.
-"Mass, Spectrum, Symmetry: Particle Physics in the Era of the Large Hadron Collider," at the Humboldt University of Berlin and Dresden University of Technology.
-"Self-Assembled Soft-Matter Nanostructures at Interfaces" at the Berlin Institute of Technology, the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces, the Humboldt University, North Carolina State University and the University of Pennsylvania.
-"Bionics - Interactions Across Boundaries to the Environment" at the University of Bonn, the Research Centre Jülich and the RWTH Aachen.
-"Mathematical Fluid Dynamics", at Darmstadt University of Technology and the Japanese University of Tokyo and Waseda University.
-"The Dynamic Response of Plants to A Changing Environment" at the University of Düsseldorf and Michigan State University in the USA.
-"Protecting the Heart from Ischemia" at the University of Giessen and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
-"Expert Cultures of the 12th to 16th Centuries" at the University of Göttingen.
-"Self-organised Mobile Communication Systems for Disaster Scenarios" at the Technical University of Ilmenau.
-"Quantum and Gravitational Fields" at the University of Jena.
-"The Christian Churches and the Challenge of Europe" at the University of Mainz.
-"Regulation and Evolution of Cellular Systems" at the Ludwig-Maximilians University, Munich, the Technical University of Munich, and the Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russia.
