Equal Opportunities
Together with the University of Freiburg, the RTG MeInBio is firmly committed to promote equal opportunities for female scientists and young parents. Female Researchers and parents of young children of the RTG benefit from the structures successfully installed at the University and the Faculty of Medicine, like the EIRA and kite mentoring programs, specific stipends and child care assistance.
In addition, the RTG assists parent scientists with young children by providing student helpers in the lab.
Specific workshops and individual coaching in time management are offered for both, female scientists and parents.
Female scientists have access to specific individual career coaching.
We are proud that more than 50% of MeInBio researchers are woman. Female group leaders, invited speakers and workshop leaders provide role models for the female PhD students for a successful scientific career.
