Thank you Prof. Dr. Julia @von_blumenthal @HumboldtUni for today's breakfast discussion about science diplomacy, academic freedom, and U.S.-German research cooperation and many thanks to our partners at @AFAvH and @dwih_ny!
I was the beneficiary of many great institutions & transatlantic experiences! A big thanks to @aslnews; @wesleyan (CSS & German); @uniheidelberg; @fulbrightprgrm & @fu_berlin; & @SAIShopkins! I can’t say “thank you” for the opportunities often enough - so I try to pay it forward.
I’m honored to be included in this illustrious group of #GermanAmericans. 🙏🏻

It was great to speak with @oertel_janka about Berlin‘s evolving position on China!
On Monday, our Director @oertel_janka talked to @ACG_USA about the new German China strategy. If you were (understandably) busy with a little more engaging literature this summer, you can get yourself up to speed by watching the full conversation here 👉 acgusa.org/policy-engagement…
As trite as it might sound: People-to-people exchanges are essential to build mutual understanding and to work toward developing solutions when meeting common challenges. 🇩🇪 & 🇺🇸
Today is #ExchangeDay! Today we recognize the value of exchange programs. The @ACG_USA has organized exchanges between the US & Germany for 50 years!
We look forward to working with you!
I presented my credentials to the @StateDept ‘s @erosenz. Now I can officially begin to further this essential and close relationship in my new role as Ambassador to the U.S.
The 2022 Annual Report is a great snapshot of the range of programs and activities @ACG_USA engaged in last year.
