Guest Researcher Johannes Nickl from Heidelberg

We are currently hosting Johannes Nickl as a guest researcher at our team and Erasmus School of Law for a period of three week. Johannes is writing his doctoral thesis on third party litigation funding in collective redress at Heidelberg University.

What brings him to Rotterdam? “As I am exploring the topic of my thesis on a comparative basis, Erasmus School of Law and Xandra Kramer’s group was the natural choice to learn more about third party litigation funding in collective redress in general and the situation in the Netherlands in particular. Although I’ve been here only for a week, I’ve already gathered plenty of new insights and had many fruitful and inspiring discussions. The conference with its wide range of distinguished experts as speakers and panelists surely will be another highlight I’m already looking forward to!”
