Background and Motivation
ATHENA aims at fostering excellence in research and innovation by facilitating international cooperation. The ATHENA Research Book provides a platform that promotes joint and interdisciplinary research projects of both advanced and early-career researchers.
For the first pilot collection, we are currently inviting Review Papers, presenting prominent scientific achievements of the ATHENA Alliance partners, Original Research Papers, focusing on ideas and achievements contributing to the concept of the European University, and Students Papers.
In the first volume of the ATHENA Research book the variety of research fields of ATHENA partners, their strengths and excellence in research should be displayed. Contributions are not limited to any range of disciplines or fields of science.
Papers to be considered
Review and Original Research Papers
Review Papers present and analyse previously published research activities and should be based on existing relevant publications.
Original Research Papers present scientific (original) research. Manuscripts should be detailed accounts of research activity written by the researchers of the ATHENA Alliance and should highlight flagship research projects in each university, and potential for future cooperation between alliance partners. Reprints of published papers (referring to the origin) are also invited, aiming to showcase outstanding research achievements of ATHENA universities.

The Editorial Board encourages student contributions. These can be either (a) short communications on student theses at masters or doctoral level, or (b) short communications on best practices and cooperation models, displaying the interrelation of teaching courses and the research from the perspective of students, whereby supervisor involvement is possible.
