ARIADNEmed/medPEER

FAUmentoring ARIADNEmed is part of FAU’s ARIADNE-program and is an equal opportunities measure as part of the target agreements to increase the proportion of women in science, which the university management, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital jointly agreed for the first time in 2008.

ARIADNEmed supports and accompanies female doctors as well as research assistants with a doctorate from the Faculty of Medicine at FAU and the University Hospital Erlangen individually in their academic careers. With its combination of individual mentoring advice and interdisciplinary skills seminars, ARIADNEmed is the ideal offer for young female academics who are interested in an academic career and want to further develop their personal skills.

Due to the excellent experience with ARIADNEmed for the promotion of young female scientists, ARIADNEmedPEER was added to the funding spectrum from fall 2023.

The aim of the new program line is to systematically support female habilitated researchers from the Faculty of Medicine at FAU and the University Hospital Erlangen-Nuremberg in their interdisciplinary/personal skills development during the transition phase to an appointment/professorship and to increase their ability to be appointed.
