Young Investigators

We are young postdoctoral fellows or PhD students chosen to represent the numerous young investigators involved in the CRC in many aspects of its organizational structure being their voice. We are also meant to help improving the social and scientific experience of young scientists within the CRC by promoting interactions between the different sites, organizing theoretical and practical workshops, suggesting scientific activities, lab rotations and conferences. The other young investigator can contact us with ideas and suggestions or for questions.  We are
