    Leibniz-Institut für Resilienzforschung (LIR)

    The Leibniz-Institut für Resilienzforschung (LIR) is a scientifically independent, non-university research institute that specializes in researching resilience. Resilience refers to the ability to maintain or quickly restore mental health during or after stressful life circumstances. The LIR develops evidence-based interventions to promote resilience and implement effective measures in areas such as healthcare, businesses, schools and universities[3][5].

    Key Products and Services

    • Resilience Training: The LIR offers target group-specific resilience training courses that aim to teach stress management strategies and strengthen health literacy. These trainings cover topics such as cognitive flexibility, active coping, social support and emotion regulation[4].
    • Research Platforms: The institute offers services for clinical trials, behavioral analysis and high-resolution imaging procedures[5].

    Main Mission and Values

    The mission of the LIR is to research the mechanisms of resilience and put them into practice. It pursues an interdisciplinary approach that includes neurobiology, physics, medicine and psychology. A central value is close cooperation with universities and research institutions to train and advise on current knowledge[5].

    Sustainability Goals and Initiatives

    The LIR is committed to providing sustainable solutions for society by developing and implementing resilience-promoting interventions. It participates in international research programs such as the EU research program "DynaMORE" and the DFG Collaborative Research Center 1193 "Neurobiology of Resilience" in order to achieve long-term positive effects on mental health[5].

    Organization and Partnerships

    The LIR is a non-profit limited liability company (gGmbH) and works closely with the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz and the Universitätsklinikum Mainz. It is managed by a scientific and commercial board of directors and has a supervisory board consisting of representatives from science, politics and society[1][2].
