Cooperations Worldwide

The MPIWG maintains close research connections with a number of institutes in various fields. Many researchers visit the MPIWG, and the institute is part of an international network of research institutions and researchers in the history of science.

Close working relationships traditionally exist with universities in Berlin where the Berlin Center for the History of Knowledge takes shape. The MPIWG is a partner institution in Excellence Clusters such as TOPOI and “Bild Wissen Gestaltung” and in Collaborative Research Centres (“Sonderforschungsbereiche”) such as “Transformations of Antiquity” and “Episteme in Motion.” Collaborative efforts include digitalization of historical data, the development of research tools, conferences, transnational research groups, and book projects.
