Language requirements

Most projects involve interviews of elderly patients. This will only be possible with fluent German. There are a few positions without this feature though, so we’d like to encourage applications from everywhere. If a PI is interested in a candidate without German skills, we will try to make it possible for the candidate to join the programme.
