Personnel

Each unit has a small group of permanent scientific and administrative staff. In addition, a considerable number of fixed-term employees are affiliated for a limited period of time.These include senior researchers, PhD students, MSc students completing a research year, project leaders and administrators affiliated with specific research projects.

General medicine forms the basis of the research teams, but the interdisciplinary environment also embraces other health professionals, statisticians, anthropologists and psychologists.
