Gender Equality

The Faculty of Medicine has established several instruments to effectively support female scientists as well as male scientists with young children.

For example :

• TANDEMmed  - helpful mentoring programs for our consortium to implement more female scientists. Gradually structured program with multiple options for female medical students after the basic medical exam.
• TANDEMplusMED – supporting medical and academic staff members with doctorates, who are on the path to professorship
• Habilitation scholarships for female physicians and female non-clinical scientists

To support equal opportunities and gender equality, there are funds for the following measures:

• Childcare in emergency cases will be offered as a back-up facility to organize work
• Workshops for women on scientific and soft skills, female scientist networking and/or leadership, offered on a regular basis.
• Student assistant support for young families
