The German Ambassador to the UK, His Excellency Miguel Berger visited the University on Friday [11 November], to meet Professor Evelyn Welch, the University's Vice-Chancellor and President, to discuss opportunities for UK-Germany education and research collaboration.
His Excellency Miguel Berger and Dr Felix Karstens, from the Embassy's Political Department, met with the University's Senior team, staff and students in the School of Modern Languages, and researchers from the Max Planck Bristol Centre for Minimal Biology in the School of Chemistry, which is based in both Bristol and Germany.
During their tour, the group were also shown the GW4 Facility for High-Resolution Electron Cryo-Microscopy in the University's Life Sciences Building, which underpins ground-breaking research by providing analysis tools to researchers enabling them to study the molecular processes responsible for cell function or malfunction.
Dr Mark Allinson, the University's Associate Pro Vice-Chancellor (Learning and Teaching), said: "We are honoured to have hosted a visit from the German Ambassador. Bristol is fortunate to have a number of firmly embedded partnerships with Germany through its research and language teaching, and we hope today’s visit will further strengthen those links with our European peers."
