Fostering Diversity at MCML

At MCML, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and supportive environment for all researchers. We believe that diversity in perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds drives innovation and excellence.

Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Officials

The DEI officials support the MCML and its members and are a link between the MCML and the other German AI Competence Centers. Their role includes attending regular meetings with the DEI officials of the other centers and organizing activities within the MCML.
