Every year, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation grants up to 100 Humboldt Research Awards to internationally leading researchers of all disciplines from abroad in recognition of their academic record to date. Award winners are also invited to conduct a research project of their choice at a research institution in Germany in cooperation with specialist colleagues there.
Through this highly competitive fellowship, Cherie is able to work at the Max-Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids in Dresden, Germany hosted by Prof. Claudia Felser.
