Organization Structure and Management

The CSD is organized in four pillars, representing the center’s main activities. Three pillars (P1-P3) are funded by the VISTA program, two of which focus on research and the third on researcher training to ensure scientific and transferable skills training for PhD, Postdocs and Master students in the center. Affiliated research projects, which are funded through other grants, are structured in a separate pillar (PA).
