Emmy Noether Programme

The Emmy Noether Programme by the DFG (German Research Foundation) gives highly qualified early-career researchers the opportunity to lead an independent junior research group at a university or research institution in Germany. In addition, this programme aims to attract outstanding postdoctoral researchers, currently working abroad, to return to Germany. Here you will find an overview of the current Emmy Noether Groups at Leibniz University and those completed in the last five years.
