You also get a chance to get to know our Cluster professors Julia Hillner, Claudia Jarzebowski, Pia Wiegmink and Christoph Witzenrath through "their objects" as each of them discusses an object that is representative of their research.

Find out from our own "correspondents": Michael Zeuske (Cuba), Ayesha Hussain (Italy) Paul Graf (Guatemala), Martin Bentz, Philippe Kluge, and Matthias Lang (Italy), Katja Girr, Ayesha Hussain (Turkey), Dita Auziņa (Belize)
