Abstract
The German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG) is thecentral German organization to support basic research primarily at German universities.An important difference to other national funding organizations is that DFG worksas a self-governing organization of German Science in a “response mode” by fundingproposals made by scientists, but also contributing strategically to the developmentof priority areas. In both cases the research objectives are defined from science andwithin the research system itself. There is no political guidance to fund or to favourspecial fields of political relevance.
