Involved Researchers

Principle investigators and researchers involved in HyPotential

The excellent and diverse team of PIs involved in the HyPotential have both complementary and overlapping expertise, which enables a highly interdisciplinary research structure to bring together researchers with a wide range of expertise and interests. At a broader level, the research structure is woven out of various complementarities arising from theoretical versus experimental and fundamental versus system scale research. This is only made possible due to the collaboration between RWTH Aachen and Institute of Science Tokyo. This holistic structure is ideal for the all-round training of the researchers because it allows the development of fruitful synergies in research.
