23. Juni 2025

Die Mentor*innen von MAXMINDS 2.0 stammen aus verschiedenen Forschungsbereichen, unter anderem aber nicht ausschließlich aus den folgenden Abteilungen und Forschungsgruppen innerhalb der MPG. Wenn die Unterstützung der Mentor*innen vor allem darin besteht, Bewerbungen für Stellen, Fellowships oder Gastaufenthalte innerhalb der MPG zu begleiten, sollten die Mentees wissen, dass die unten aufgeführten Abteilungen und Forschungsgruppen das Projekt auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen aktiv unterstützen.

Sofern auf den Webseiten der jeweiligen Abteilungen oder Forschungsgruppen angegeben, können Wissenschaftler*innen oberhalb der Postdoc-Stufe direkt über die dort bereitgestellten Informationen Fellowships beantragen.
