Simone will talk about her experiences in collaborative research projects, her transition to the postdoc phase, and – as a mother of two children – reconciling family and science.

 

About the series:

The “Gender & Diversity Lunch” series invites all members of the CRC “Media of Cooperation” and “Transformations of the Popular” to an exchange on current topics and issues in the fields of gender equality, diversity and the compatibility of family and science. The goal of the series is to facilitate networking between CRC members and individuals from different fields and with different biographical experiences. A guest on a particular topic is invited to each event. The series is held at lunchtime, including a snack. Suggestions for topics and guests are always welcome.

 

A collaborative format of CRC 1187 & 1472 on equal opportunities
