[PROTEOFORuM] Workshop – Getting Started. The path to a successful doctorate (July 14, 2025)

Written by

This workshop is organized by the iRTG PROTEOFORuM.

The workshop ‘Getting Started. The path to a successful doctorate’ focuses on the critical elements for a successful doctoral journey: Which mindsets, tools, and processes make a real difference on the way to a PhD? We concentrate on three areas: The efficient organization of tasks and notes, the productive communication with supervisors and the research community, and the structured reading and writing of academic papers. Additionally, the workshop will introduce techniques for self-management to support productivity and well-being throughout the PhD journey. The specific agenda will be tailored to the interests of the participants to ensure the content is relevant and particular emphasis will be placed on strategies for participants to successfully transfer learnings from this workshop to their own work context.

New Research Training Group “Politik der Aufklärung” has started

Written by

What do politicians mean when they refer to the ideals of the Enlightenment? Angela Merkel declared in the Bundestag in 2021 that she believes in the “power of the Enlightenment”. French President Emmanuel Macron repeatedly invokes the need to defend the “spirit of the Enlightenment”. “Critical research must of course question what interpretation of the concept of enlightenment underlies these political statements,” says Décultot. A look at the past shows that this interpretation changes and is often guided by interests. Critical voices even see the philosophy of the Enlightenment as a product of Eurocentrism, which has fostered the colonialism and racism of the West.

Written by

You can register to the iDiv Summer School 2024 “Deep learning for biodiversity and ecological research”, 25 to 29 August 2025, in Leipzig, Germany! This year’s iDiv Summer School is led by Patrick Mäder and Jana Wäldchen. Further teachers are Michael Rzanny and Ladisalv Hodac.

The 2025 iDiv summer school will provide participants with a hands-on experience in applying latest deep learning and computer vision techniques to ecological and biodiversity studies. The participants will be introduced to the theoretical foundations of deep learning and its applications in ecological research. In addition, hands-on sessions will allow participants to deepen their understanding by working with real-world examples. These practical exercises will focus on using deep learning libraries, as well as building, training, and evaluating deep learning models for ecological tasks.

The summer school is aimed at MSc students and doctoral researchers. Participants from regions often underrepresented in science can apply for funding.

[IAMO GS] Scientific Writing: How to successfully structure and write scientific papers (January 29 – 30 and Feb 12, 2025)

Written by

There are free slots in a workshop organised by the IAMO Graduate School.

  • 29 – 30 January 2025 ( full day, 09.00- 17.00 IAMO, CR 1) and 12 February 2025 (half day, online)
  • Trainer: Dr. Kimberly Crow

The workshop has three goals: 

  1. Insights into how to effectively structure scientific papers and practical advice on how to develop convincing narratives for scientific publications;
  2. Input, especially aiming at non-native English speakers, on how to improve academic writing skills by highlighting typical features and composing elements commonly applied and expected by native speakers of English; 
  3. Interactive editing and feedback session, including a 1:1 mentoring session by the trainer for each participant.

The interactive training is especially recommended for doctoral researchers in the early stages of their doctorate, but it is also a motivating and beneficial refresher for more advanced doctoral researchers 😊. More info is available here. If you would like to sign up, please email  .

This IGS course particularly emphasizes writing and formulation skills for non-native English speakers.

Written by

The interdisciplinary research training group 2670 BEAM hosts its first conference from March 19. – 21., 2025 in Halle (Saale).

BEAM ist interested in researching molecular self-organization through non-covalent interactions going  Beyond Amphiphilicity.  BEAM aims to understand how dynamics and multiple noncovalent interaction patterns determine and affect transition processes of polyphilic molecules and materials. 

BEAM is a consortium consisting of researchers from the fields of chemistry, biochemistry, physics, and mathematics. 

We explicitly encourage early career researchers to attend. We still have a few free slots for external contributed/invited talks of 15/30min or a poster presentation with an included 2min flash talk. 

There is no conference fee.
