How we do it

Launched in 2005 by the EMBO Young Investigator Programme, our mission to empower scientists to pursue impactful science has never felt more critical. Our portfolio of courses addresses a broad variety of core competencies in leadership, management, and research. Join us and discover how to elevate yourself and your team while prioritising good lab citizenship, well-being, and reproducible science.

We work with people who understand that leadership and other ‘soft skills’ are learnable, transformative, and empowering. We enable researchers to nurture talent, foster innovation, and create dynamic lab cultures where both science and scientists can flourish.

We research extensively to understand and apply insights from psychology, human behavioural science, social science, neuroscience, project management, the business world, and many other disciplines. We seek to understand you so that you can build on your strengths, knowledge, and uniqueness; we respect your intelligence and insight.
