An Interview With A Young Researcher: Bettina Keller
On the boat trip to Mainau Island Noble Laureate Steven Chu takes part in a lively conversation with young scientist Bettina Keller at the 63rd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting.
I’m not a chemist, but at the Lindau meeting that doesn’t matter
I love robots (who doesn’t?) and really enjoy the work roboticists do. All through graduate school, I had a roboticist as a housemate. We talked about how difficult it is for robots to things that we humans take for granted. Show a robot a picture of the street and it won’t be able to differentiate […]
From a small city in India to the big world of science
Sarika Goel grew up in India in a small city called Meerut in the state of Uttar Pradesh. As a curious child she grew to love science and chose to study engineering. After completing undergraduate studies in chemical engineering in the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi, she joined to the University of California at […]
Heather Gray: chaotic starts and Higgs excitement
Heather Gray, a researcher working on the ATLAS experiment at CERN, was at this year’s Lindau meeting. I spoke to her over email before it started to find out about her expectations, and afterwards she told me about her impressions of the meeting and what it was like to watch the announcement from CERN with other […]
Before the master class: Josh Dillon
The Lindau meetings have certain traditions – the polonaise comes to mind; the exclusivity (laureates and young researchers only!) of the afternoon discussion sessions; the boat ride. But now and again, Lindau tries something new. From 2010, I remember an "inverse panel", with Nobel laureates interviewing a panel of young researchers instead of the other […]
Researcher profile: Heather Gray on life at CERN
Heather Gray, originally from South Africa and currently working at CERN, is one of the attendees producing a video diary to document her time at the Lindau meeting this year. I caught up with her over email just before the start of the meeting to find out what a day’s work at CERN is really like – […]
International bright young things: 30 under 30
This year’s Lindau meeting has brought together over 550 young scientists from around the world from countries including Germany, Kenya, the US, Egypt, India and South Africa. The often repeated motto at Lindau is “educate, inspire, connect” and although the temperamental wifi in the Inselhalle conference centre means that connections of the digital variety are […]
Lindau: A 2010 participant tells all
MP: Hi Rike – and thanks for agreeing to do this interview! Could you please introduce yourself to our readers? RM-W: I’m Rike Müller-Werkmeister, and I’m almost finished with my PhD at the Institute for Biophysics of Frankfurt University. For my thesis, I’m investigating biomolecular dynamics, using ultra-short laser pulses, and artificial aminoacids as new […]
Lindau: Tipps und Erinnerungen einer Teilnehmerin des 2010er-Treffens
Rike Müller-Werkmeister hatte ich bereits während des Lindauer Treffens 2010 interviewt, an dem sie als Jungwissenschaftlerin teilnahm – einmal direkt am Anfang des Treffens, einmal gegen Ende. Daher habe ich sofort an Rike gedacht, als ich mich fragte, wer wohl den diesjährigen Teilnehmern ein Gefühl vom Ablauf und, ja, vom Geist der Lindauer Treffen vermitteln […]
6 Video Diarists – 6 Countries
6 out of 592 young researchers show us, where they come from. In words and pictures. On Monday the first of this year’s Lindau Video Diarists have uploaded their videos – about themselves, their hopes and their research topics. Now all of them have done so and you may travel with us via these videos […]
