Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin - Gender as a Category of Knowledge

Prof. Dr. Cecilia Åsberg

"Across national and disciplinary borders, I am immensely proud and honoured to be associated with this Research Training Group in my role as doctoral supervisor. The Research Training Group ›Gender as a Category of Knowledge‹ stands firmly at the cutting edge of interdisciplinary
feminist research and curriculum in Europe. Whether within the setting of InterGender Research
School, other forms of doctoral training and research events, or the research excellence
center GEXcel International Collegium for Advanced Transdisciplinary Research, it is always
a great pleasure to collaborate with such openminded, high-spirited and esteemed colleagues as those at the Research Training Group."		 asberg.jpg
