Today, Professor Jens-Karl Eilers from the Faculty of Medicine takes office as Vice-Rector for Excellence Development: Research and Transfer. He was elected by the Leipzig University Senate. In the video, Professor Eilers introduces himself and his vice-rectorate.

Given the fact that transfer services predominantly result from research, the Vice-Rectorate unites the thematically interlinked areas of research and transfer. The Vice-Rectorate is responsible for the development of excellence in research with a view to participation in the national excellence competition and, beyond that, with a view to developing excellent framework conditions for research and transfer. Its remit thus covers strategic, cross-faculty matters pertaining to research and transfer.

In the video (English subtitles available), the newly elected Vice-Rector talks about his motivation, his tasks and his priorities while in office.
