Join our large research network of PIER Scientists

Eligible for registration as PIER Scientists are researchers from the PIER research and competence fields who are members of DESY, Universität Hamburg, or one of the PIER partner institutions on the Hamburg Bahrenfeld campus (e.g. EMBL, MPSD, European XFEL GmbH etc.). PIER Scientists are informed about all PIER calls, services, and events by email. Registration as a PIER Scientist is a prerequisite for any PIER Idea Fund application.

Please note: Doctoral researchers who are members of the PIER Helmholtz Graduate School (PHGS) are automatically registered as PIER Scientists and therefore do not have to register via this form. You are starting a doctorate at DESY or Universität Hamburg and want to become a member of PHGS? Please sign up here.
