The DGfI especially appreciates its young members. In September 2016 the Young Immunologists (YI) group was founded to support early-career scientists within the DGfI with their scientific career development.
The overall aim of this group is to connect young immunologists throughout Germany. We provide networking opportunities and tackle common problems which many young researchers face such as non-permanent contracts, dealing with publication/time pressure, integrating family plans and obtaining a healthy work-life-balance.
