At Helmholtz Munich, we develop groundbreaking solutions for a healthier society in a rapidly changing world. We believe that diverse perspectives drive innovation. Through strong partnerships, we accelerate the transfer of new ideas from the lab to real-life applications, improving lives.
Your work provides the foundation for scientific discoveries with real impact, shaping the future of health.
The Institute of Epidemiology (EPI) investigates the links between environment, lifestyle and genetics in the development of diseases. The focus is on metabolism, respiratory and allergic diseases, but also cardiovascular diseases and mental health. Our aims are to better understand the molecular mechanisms of disease development in the population, to break new ground in prevention at the individual level and to enable evidence-based preventive health care through improved environmental conditions.
The research is based, among other things, on the unique population-based KORA resources (cohort, heart attack registry, aerosol monitoring station) and the GINI and LISA birth cohorts. EPI is also one of the central partners in planning and execution of the NAKO Health Study and is building the central NAKO biosample repository.
Managing Director Mike Frieser:
„We believe that diversity is the key to groundbreaking research and innovative solutions. Our flexible working models and remote options create a supportive environment for balancing work and family life. For us, contributing to a healthier society in such an inspiring workplace is truly meaningful.“
