The Work Benches in QUEST - Task Groups
The mission of our Task Groups is to specify research projects important to QUEST by an interdisciplinary collaboration of scientists from different research groups.
Our nine Task Groups are the “work benches” in QUEST, where “cross-linking” of the research areas results either in visions which are turned into reality or new research activities that are initiated and executed by a number of research groups working together.
