In addition, we introduced a Research Visits Pro- gramme that offers our fellows the opportunity to visit institutes abroad while providing early career researchers from around the world the same chance at the Zukunftskolleg. As we begin these new activities, we also work to maintain our existing, long-standing partnerships. I am especially proud that we are now organizing our third workshop with the Martin Buber Society of Fellows in the Humanities (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) this year. The first part of the workshop took place in Konstanz this June; the second part is set in Jerusalem for November.

The field of internationalization demonstrates what runs like a golden thread through the Zukunftskolleg. More than ten years after our inception, we continue to develop our for- Dear reader, mats and experiment with new ideas while holding fast to proven concepts and learning Imagine a place where early career researchers are fully able to concentrate on their rese- from our experiences.

This is the vision we have been pursuing over the course of the last few years. The evaluation confirms we are indeed making our vision a reality: "[T]he Zukunftskolleg is successful in the promotion of young researchers." This conclusion is based on 54 percent Our 5i strategy guides our steps as fellows are encouraged to achieve independence early of all the Zukunftskolleg's former 5-year fellows subsequently being appointed to full pro- on without having to forego the benefits of being embedded in their respective univer- fessorships.

In the context of this programme, we co-funded fellowships over a course of six years Yours sincerely with one unique characteristic: Applicants were only accepted if they had been working Giovanni Galizia and living outside Germany for two of the last three years prior to applying. The EU COFUND Programme was essential to increasing the attractiveness of the Zukunfts- kolleg for international researchers and expanding the institution's internationality.

Next, we will use and apply our chemical tools to develop potential leads for future antibiotics and unlock the secrets of bacterial interactions. In a second project, we investigated a nanorod with an interface between CdTe and CdS. This electronic con- tact leads to the separation of positive and negative charges upon excitation with light. However, high strain between the crystal lattices causes problems that mitigate the use of this interesting material combination. By using ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy in collaboration with Zukunftskolleg Fellow and physicist Dani- ele Brida, we were able to show that excited charges localise at the interface. We were able to demonstrate full charge separation by chemically extracting the positive charge carrier. These findings will have a signifi- cant impact on the development of photo-active nanomaterials. 10 Fellow Reports | Academic Year 2017–2018 5i Strategy 11

This use of ellipsis, which During and following the financial crisis in 2007|2008, numerous financial institutions experienced extreme occurs in the previous sentence (the phrase 'discard redundant words' is elided after 'can'), is governed by losses or even went bankrupt (e.g. Lehman Brothers).

Fighting for equal opportunities in academia

During the last year I continued my research on climate variability and velocity. Recent climate change is one of the major threats to biodiversity. Although the threat is global, climate change effects on biodiversity will differ locally and regionally. I analysed climate variability and velocity over the 20th and 21st century across Germany using instrumental weather records. I presented the findings of my research at the BES Sympo- sium in Durham (UK) and at the meeting of the American Association of Geographers (AAG) in New Orleans.

At the same meeting and in relation to my endeavours to promote positions of disabled researchers in aca- demia, I was invited by the AAG to organise and chair a panel on "Researchers with disabilities and the obst- acles they face in academia". Researchers with disabilities are still a very much underrepresented group in academia worldwide. Although some laws and policies prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability do exist, they are still rarely followed or implemented. Any direct comparison with non-disabled applicants in the job screening process is a presentation of inequality and unfortunately just illusion of equality. Academia is a very competitive place, and this might be part of the reason why non-disabled academics still do not fully understand that the academic path of disabled researchers may differ from theirs. For example, can they do fieldwork in the same 'way' or 'speed' as non-disabled scientists or researchers? Should we expect their research output (i.e. papers, books) to be of the same quantity as those of able-bodied researchers? The slower pace of research sometimes impacts the quantity, but not necessarily the quality.

Additionally, the Zukunfts- kolleg offers specific funding instruments for interdisciplinary projects. 22 Fellow Reports | Academic Year 2017–2018 Fellow Reports | Academic Year 2017–2018 23

The self in imagination

There are moments in life in which one has to make decisions that will affect one's own future self. Should I go to university or should I apply for an apprenticeship instead? Is this a good time to start a family? Whate- ver the outcome of this deliberation might be, one's future self has to deal with the consequences. However, there is an intriguing philosophical puzzle attached to this. How does one know what this future person wants, believes and fears? I am arguing that we gain knowledge of our future self via imagination. 'Imagi- nation' can be defined as vividly representing something (before the mind's eye) that is not present to the senses and that may or may not be true or even existent. Of course, one can imagine pink elephants sitting on the couch (not true and not existing!), but one can also imagine what it would be like to go to the university or to have a family and this might help to make the appropriate decision. Hence, even if the future selves are just imagined they will have an effect on our current self-view. In contrast to the pink elephant case, howe- ver, imagination that presents the future self must be realistic. Imagination as a means for knowledge should therefore be constrained, which means that it should be embedded in a number of justified beliefs about the world. My research focuses on the question whether we can gain knowledge by imagination. More specifi- cally, I am asking about the conditions that must be met for imagination to ground knowledge of the world and ourselves. During the international conference "Imagination and Knowledge" at the University of Kon- stanz in September 2017 which I organized together with Margherita Arcangeli I gained extremely valuable ideas to further explore my idea.

This insight is important, as theories of political violence often focus on the actions of governments and rebel organizations, rather than paying attention to the experiences of individuals. We believe that violence against civilians across group boundaries contributes strongly to escalations.

The first one compares two TV discourses: an official print media discourse efforts during my job-hunt.

This helped me to learn how to present my research topic formal structures and aesthetical features. in a way that even people from outside my research field can understand. This was extremely helpful for my job interviews. Another thing that I have learned at the Zukunftskolleg is that presentations with a clear structure and brief content are always more desirable.
