Introduction to Statistics and R (February 28 – March 3, 2023)

Written by

Content

R has become a leading statistical programming language in data science and statistics. The R software is free, highly extensible, and allows to easily produce publication-quality plots. The aim of this course is to equip participants with the basic skills to effectively use the software R, embedded in the user interface RStudio. These skills will cover data import, processing and data exploration, graphical representations with ggplot2, basic concepts of statistical inference and linear regression. All topics will be demonstrated in working examples and practiced with hands on examples.

In the first two days we are going to teach the basic functionality of R, RStudio, and ggplot2. Day three and four are dedicated to the application of statistical tests, which will be extended to linear mixed-effects models.

Wegbereiterinnen: Frauen in den Naturwissenschaften (19. Januar 2023)

Lise Meitner – was wir aus Ihrem „inhaltsreichen Leben“ heute lernen können

by Prof. Dr. Cornelia Denz (PTB Braunschweig)

Lise Meitner gehört durch ihre Entdeckung und Erklärung der Kernspaltung zu den bedeutendsten wissenschaftlichen Persönlichkeiten des 20 Jahrhunderts. „Unsere Madame Curie“ nannte sie daher ihr Kollege Albert Einstein, und verweist damit gleichzeitig auf eine Zeit, in der Frauen in der Physik rar waren und an vielen Fronten um Anerkennung kämpfen mussten. Lise Meitner forschte unter diesen Bedingungen dennoch höchst erfolgreich, zunächst an der Universität, später am Kaiser-Wilhelm- Institut für Chemie in Berlin. Ihre herausragende Forschungskarriere wurde zu Beginn der NS-Herrschaft jäh unterbrochen und führte sie auf abenteuerlichem, beschwerlichem Weg in ein Leben im Exil in Schweden. Auch dort blieb Lise Meitner ihrem Lebensziel treu, ein „inhaltsreiches Leben“ zu führen: die Physik zu verstehen und bleibende wissenschaftliche Beiträge zu leisten.

Der Vortrag stellt Lise Meitner in verschiedenen Facetten vor, als Studentin, Physikerin, Abteilungsleiterin und Privatdozentin, aber auch als Kollegin und Freundin, und diskutiert aktuelle Bezüge zu Frauen in den Natur- und Ingenieurwissenschaften heute.
