The "MobiKiz" has been available at the Faculty of Biosciences since June 2014. The MobiKiz is a portable children's playroom with various age-appropriate toys and can be borrowed during your stay at the University. The MobiKiz is of course free to borrow, but you should make sure that it is returned in full so that other children can continue to play with it.

In the Biologicum, the MobiKiz can be borrowed in the Didactics Department in room -1.412. A prior appointment is not absolutely necessary, but would be desirable (+49 69 798-42270).

Another MobiKiz is available at the Otto-Stern-Zentrum (OSZ) at the doorman's office and can be borrowed there during regular working hours

The "Frauenförderfond" is available for measures to promote women in studies and science and to reconcile family and studies/work. Applications for financial support can be submitted to the Equal Opportunities Council, e.g. to support childcare or travel costs for participation in academic conferences and excursions or to finance professional development courses. If you have any questions about the general conditions and the application process, please contact Prof. Dr. Averhoff (T: +49 69 798-29509). Further information can be found in the , including instructions on how to apply.

Guidelines for applying for financial support

Please note the new guidelines for applying for financial support from the Equal Opportunities Council. Financial support for non-gender-specific applications (e.g. participation in conferences) is only possible with a simultaneous or previous application to another institution, as our financial framework is very limited. Furthermore, the application for financial support for a conference participation is only possible with active participation in the form of a poster presentation and/or a lecture by the applicant. Please refer to the  for further information and conditions.

The maternity protection portal of 51ÁÔÆæ offers information to all pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, supervisors and those responsible for implementation.

Of course, reporting a pregnancy is always voluntary due to the right to informational self-determination. However, it is advisable to report it as early as possible, as only then  special protective measures can be taken.

Pregnant students are entitled to maternity protection periods during their studies. The contact person for pregnant students at the Department of Biosciences is Dr. Anna Wittekindt - please contact her for advice and to clarify possible risks and necessary protective measures in courses (especially laboratory practicals) at an early stage.

In individual cases and to a limited extent, it is possible for pregnant employees to submit an application to the Equal Opportunities Council to hire a student assistant (Studentische Hilfskraft) for work in the laboratory for hazardous activities during pregnancy (see Financial Support).
