curAMento-interim event: Exchange, inspiration, and fresh perspectives

On June 18, 2025, the curAMento interim event took place – a significant milestone in the mentoring program of the curATime future cluster, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). For a year now, we have been accompanying six committed mentees on their individual paths and supporting them in their personal and professional development.

A special highlight of the meeting was the Q&A session with Felicitas Müller, Philipp Wild, and Özlem Türeci. In an open and inspiring exchange, they provided insights into their career paths and answered questions on topics such as career planning, dealing with challenges, and personal development.

Their personal anecdotes made it clear that career paths rarely run in a straight line. Opportunities often arise through detours—and it is always possible to strike out in new directions. These perspectives were not only motivating but also encouraging for our mentees.

We would like to thank all mentors, guests, and participants for the inspiring atmosphere and valuable exchange. We look forward to continuing to accompany our mentees on their journey.
