Coordination Funds

在第一个三年期间，DFG的“分类组学”优先方案（“Schwerpunktprogramm”）包括27个项目和38个PI。会议由演讲者Susanne Renner教授和指导委员会协调。有几个参数来记录SPP的成功，如出版物，邀请会谈，完成的论文或记录的合作。然而，在资助期间举办的七个讲习班的参与率非常高，因为每个博士生或博士后平均至少参加三个讲习班。年度会议不仅促进了研究领域的进展，而且通过与会者的合作加快了各种方法的进步。最高人民检察院第二个供资期的协调项目提案评估了各种措施的有效性，并建议继续开展成功的活动。因此，年会、各种研讨会和实验室交流将继续进行。此外，我们提出了一些修改和新措施，以改善优先方案的总体业绩。我们将加强努力，促进科学领域的性别平等和多样性。一个研讨会的重点是“科学中的无意识偏见”和学术界的LGBT+多样性的认识将是一个年度会议的一部分。最后，将特别强调外展，不仅支持系统学和分类学领域的研究，而且支持通过适当的媒体（如短片）向其他学科和公众传播现代分类学。

During its first 3-year period, the DFG priority programme ('Schwerpunktprogramm') in 'Taxon-Omics' consisted of 27 projects and 38 PIs. It was coordinated by the speaker Prof. Susanne Renner and the steering committee. There are several parameters to document the success of the SPP such as publications, invited talks, completed theses or documented collaborations. However, the participation at the seven workshops organized during the funding period was overwhelmingly high as each doctoral student or postdoc participated at least three workshops on average. The annual meetings contributed not only the progress of the research area but accelerated various methodological advancements through the collaboration of participants. The proposal of the coordination project for the second funding period of the SPP evaluates the effectiveness of the various measures and propose the continuation of the successful activities. Thus, annual meetings, different workshops and lab exchange will be continued. In addition, we propose some changes and new measures to improve the overall performance of the priority programme. We will intensify our efforts with respect to gender equity and diversity in science. A workshop focusing on awareness of 'Unconscious Bias in Science' and LGBT+ diversity in academia will be part of one annual meeting. Finally, special emphasis will be made on the outreach to support not only research in the field of systematics and taxonomy but to support dissemination of modern taxonomy into other disciplines and into the general public with adequate media such as short films.
