The Group

We are a team of dynamic and ambitious individuals, working together with dedication to improve and master challenges in scientific research. By working as a team, we can achieve much more and while exploring uncharted (scientific) territory can be exciting and rewarding, it can also be challenging and stressful. In the Mommer Research Group, we give each other space to innovate, develop, and to learn – but at the same time support each other and celebrate success. To this end, we value friendly, open and honest communication, encourage each other and foster qualities of transparency and mutual respect, regardless of origin, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs or disability. In capitalizing on this collaborative, compassionate and inclusive culture we aim to create a better work environment for everybody.
