Experts predict a reset of transatlantic collaboration
The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) expects academic collaboration with the United States to improve under the new presidency of Joe Biden. Prospects for a reset of transatlantic relations were discussed online two days before Biden took office by a roundtable of experts from both countries.
DAAD President Joybrato Mukherjee views Biden’s choice of geneticist Eric Lander as presidential science advisor and director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy as an indication of academia assuming a high significance in the forthcoming administration.
And whereas academic relations between Germany and the USA took a nosedive last summer following the announcement of plans to introduce more stringent visa regulations that would also have affected German academics and students, Mukherjee now perceives better prospects for collaboration.
