Successful "Women in Natural Science School 2022 – Energy for (your) future"
30 scientists from 14 countries held meeting in Blossin
About 30 women of 14 different nationalities from all career levels who are active in different areas of natural sciences – from astrophysics to biochemistry, and from environmental science to mechanical engineering – spent together four days in the nature to discuss about scientific and technological challenges in the field of energy production, storage, and consumption.
Prof. Caterina Cocchi (Uni Oldenburg/ HU Berlin - IRIS Adlershof), Dr. Zsuzsanna Heiner (HU Berlin), and Dr. Petra Metz (HU Berlin) organized and carried out the WiNS School 2022 in Blossin, Brandenburg, June 10 – 13.
The scientific program, consisting of a balanced mix between invited talks and oral contributions from the participants, was complemented by a one-day seminar on career development, personal empowerment, and community building. Two sessions dedicated to science communication augmented this rich agenda. The participants of this event are now part of the WiNS network and have committed themselves to act as role models for the next generation of female scientists.
