Title: “Polymer Crystallization in Ultrathin Films at the Air-Water Interface”
Date: February 23, 2023
During our final iRTG meeting in Wittenberg, we focused on the career options of polymer scientists after the PhD. There was be plenty of opportunity for exchange and networking with our guests (alumni, invited speakers) to get an insight into their jobs and talk about their experiences.
In the afternoon, there was a social activity and we had dinner together. We stayed in the Leucorea for the next two days for the SFB-retreat.

This training organized by IAMO Graduate School gives doctoral researchers and postdocs insights into the structure of career paths in academia, in public service outside academia and in the private sector – with a focus on the German labor market. It supports participants in giving sufficient thought to when and on what basis they should decide for or against a career in science. Participants will also become aware of their personal interests, values and competences and how this knowledge can be used to find the appropriate jobs.

When everything feels like an opportunity, a priority, or an obligation, how do we say no? The truth is we cannot start saying no until we get clear on why we keep saying yes to everything.
In our webinar “The power of saying no” with lecturer Desiree Dickerson on 17 February, 10:30 am – 12:00 pm, we explored:
You can register here by 13 February. You are welcome to forward this link to interested colleagues.
We meet in a seminar room to work undisturbed on our manuscripts and, if necessary, to discuss writing problems during breaks.
During a normal working day there are always interruptions and distractions and the work on the text is delayed. The goal of this day is to spend a few hours writing in a concentrated manner. There will be coffee and cookies, please bring your notebook and preferably have a clear idea or defined task for your manuscript.
date: February 28, 8.30-14.30
