Picture of a scientist: An evening on gender bias in science
Who actually does science? And why is it still "the male scientist" in our minds? We want to address this topic in an evening, organized fully online. We will watch together (or better: simultaneously) the film PICTURE A SCIENTIST, in which a female biologist, a female chemist and a female geologist take on these questions and lead us on a journey through the experiences of their academic careers - as female scientists. The documentary (English original version, German subtitles) gives hope as it tells the story of strength and solidarity, of courageous female scientists who stand up to injustice and start a global discourse of change and equality.
Afterwards, we will meet in a casual setting in freely changeable discussion groups, for a glass of wine or fizzy drink, to discuss impressions and ideas.
March, 18th - 7 p.m.
Please register until Sunday, March 14th, at: elearning.uni-oldenburg.de/dispatch.php/course/details?sem_id=a25256c6f5d132338ff2455699fa1233 (or Stud.IP → Search → Enter “Picture a scientist”)

Cancelled due to corona:Writing Retreat for female scientists in spring 2021 (08.02. bis 12.02)
In everyday life scientists often have a packed schedule and little time to concentrate on publishing their work. But: The central currency for a successful scientific career are publications and third-party funding applications. In November 2019, the Royal Society of Chemistry in Nature published* that there are still structural hurdles for women scientists to publicise.
Especially female scientists, being more often more involved in committee work and teaching as well as family responsibilities, have very little time to spend on writing publications or proposals. For an academic career, however, these are of enormous importance.
The writing retreat is a possibility and training for concentrated writing. It is a planned retreat and break from everyday university life. The aim is to provide scientists with an optimal working environment in which to immerse themselves in the individual writing process and to devote themselves effectively to scientific publications, applications and projects.
During the writing retreat we provide an undisturbed atmosphere, offering a fixed daily routine, which nevertheless also takes into account the need for exchange (peer review), recreation, exercise and healthy nutrition, as well as contemplation.
In addition to the direct text result of the intensive working time, individual writing skills, the establishment of productive work strategies and self-organisation are improved.
More details will be announced soon.
