Education

Our staff and doctoral students have the possibility to attend various training and further education courses dealing with aspects of drug development, transfer, patents, licences and spin-offs. For this purpose, we work closely together with the central graduate academy GRADE of the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Frankfurt. GRADE offers participants a broad spectrum of different courses that cover not only scientific topics but also skills in the areas of (self-)management and career planning.

The GRADE Centres provide early career scientists with training in distinct research areas. The GRADE Center BioMed FIRST focuses on drug research, development and safety and offers courses as well as workshops on these topics. In addition, career talks are offered, which provide a broad overview of possible career paths not only in the university but also in industry and other non-academic working fields.

The current GRADE programme can be found here.

TransMIT GmbH acts as a partner for innovation and is working at the intersection of science and business. The aim is to provide targeted support for researchers and their innovative ideas in order to ensure a rapid transfer of innovation. 

Interesting seminars, workshops and (virtual) company excursions are offered in order to fascilitate the application process for the GO-Bio Initial funding initiative of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. Employees of the Innovation Centre have the opportunity to participate in these events. Please find more information here.
