The research as a whole is almost completely conducted in close international cooperation. Besides a number of international grants and many
two-side contracts, multi-lateral contracts must be emhpasized.
The extent of our international collaboration shows itself also in the number of stays of experts from/at IPP:

The stays of international students at IPP on the basis of various agreements are not included in the latter table; the total duration amounted to about 24 months in 2005.
An important aspect of the international cooperation is the membership of our experts in various international bodies and committees and vice-versa.
A specific expression of an international integration is also organization of international scientific conferences and meetings.
