| My group
is characterized by a very flat hierarchy, encouraging everybody to
participate in lively and in-depth discussions about our research
topics, science and life in general. We believe that a frequent
exchange of ideas opens new perspectives, helps being critical and
forms our discursive skills. And it's fun! We also make an effort to
implement our ideas; discovering what you can achieve is also fun. Think of joining? We are looking for skilled, motivated and open-minded people who can commit themselves to an idea and try to make a change. If that sounds like you, we'd be happy to get to know you. |
