In addition to the direct funding of research projects and scientists, one of the foundation's key tasks is science communication.
The journal ALBERT, published since 2015, also focuses on research areas that reflect the diversity and complexity of Berlin's scientific landscape.
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem is also considered a cooperation partner because it preserves the legacy of Albert Einstein and participates in committees.
The Foundation offers funding programs for various career levels, including professorships, visiting fellows, and so-called starting researchers.
