Women and Career in Natural Science – equal opportunity: Insights behind the CV

Event Date: 18.04.2023 + 19.04.2023:

This workshop is for PhD candidates and others who are either publishing in international journals, or soon will be. The modules therefore explore how scientific writers can satisfy the expectations of international, English-speaking journal editors, and boost their chances of publication. Participants will learn the techniques they need to write well structured papers which communicate the value of their research with impact and clarity.

“Clear at Glance – Successfully Communicate your Research at the Next Virtual or Physical Event Poster sessions are an integral part of almost every scientific conference. Their purpose is to highlight research results, visualize them and stimulate discussion. To draw your audience in, you need a crystal-clear message, a text format optimized for best legibility, well-chosen graphics and above all, a convincing layout for a printed or digital format. Basic rules of graphic design help you to arrange your research visually well-ordered and compelling. The workshop also provides time for practice a pitch poster presentation of your poster – participants come away from the course with a designed or redesigned poster.”

“How to get up after falling down” What do we do when things go wrong? How do we respond when we fail or when we have bad luck? Did you know that even BEAM failed the first time? What if … every experience of failure became an opportunity to learn and grow? In this workshop, we discuss the many ways in which things can go wrong and we clarify what failure means to each of us, individually.
