Doctoral Programme Atoms, Light, and Molecules (DK-ALM)
The Doctoral Programme (Doktoratskolleg) Atoms, Light, and Molecules, DK-ALM, is a collaborative programme that provides a research and training environment for excellent national and international students.
The programme combines fore-front research in several scientific fields within the framework of atomic, molecular and optical physics with high-level education and has been funded for nearly 10 years by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) from 2016 to 2025.
The doctoral programme is linked to the four Physics Institutes at the University of Innsbruck and to the Physics Research Center, one of the five Research Focal Points of the University.
A Virtuoso in the Quantum World
Rudolf Grimm gave up his career as a guitarist in a punk band to pursue a degree in physics; however, as an internationally renowned experimental physicist, Wittgenstein Prize winner, and one of the founding fathers of the Austrian Academy of Sciences’ Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI), he also conquered the stage. Today, Tuesday, Grimm turns 65.
