Laura Münkler (born 1985) is a German professor for public law and healthcare law at Greifswald University.
Life
editLaura Münkler was born into a family of scholars in Friedberg, Hesse.[1] She is the daughter of political scientist Herfried Münkler[2] and literary scholar Marina Münkler. In 2004 she passed the Abitur before taking up legal studies at Humboldt University of Berlin. She also passed both legal Staatsexamen in 2009 and 2011 at Berlin.
From 2009 until 2012, Laura Münkler was a research fellow at Humboldt University and a DAAD lecturer at the Paris Nanterre University. In 2012 she was admitted to the bar and briefly joined a law firm before she became a research fellow with Jens Kersten at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.[3]
In 2014 she was awarded a doctorate. Her dissertation thesis was awarded both the faculty prize and the prize of Münchener Juristische Gesellschaft.
Laura Münkler was habilitated in 2020 in public law, healthcare law and legal theory and in the same year became a professor at Greifswald University.[4][5] Her habilitation thesis deals with the relationship between experts, politics, and the law. Münkler argues the supremacy of law and politics over what the experts say must prevail because in the end it is a political matter how to deal with an expert's opinion of any other faculty.
