Gözde is a materials chemist working on the design and synthesis of functional materials for energy applications. In advance of #LINO22 she was interviewed for the series "Women in Research".
With her research Nicole Foster develops new approaches to analyse DNA contained within environmental samples such as soil and dust. The scientist from Australia recently participated in #LINO22.
Young Scientist Sara Dumit Earns Back-to-Back Awards for her Interdisciplinary Research
Besides having been selected in 2021 to participate in the 70th and the 71st Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings as a young scientist, Sara Dumit has recently received two consecutive prestigious awards for her interdisciplinary research in Health Physics.
Mentoring, Publishing Results, and Communication in Science – Workshops on the Lindau Guidelines and the Lindau Mentoring Hub
During #LINO22, two workshops were dedicated to initiatives of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings that were launched in 2020: the Lindau Guidelines and the Lindau Mentoring Hub. What progress has been made by these two recent projects and what do young scientists think about the future directions of these initiatives?
The closing discussion with Nobel Laureate Donna Strickland sparked lively conversation about the importance of diversity for science, different types of diversity, and how those in academic positions of power can improve the participation of underrepresented groups.
The ingredients that produce rapid advances in science often include cognitively diverse teams and a high degree of tenacity from the researchers. Some #LINO22 sessions highlighted excellent examples of such breakthroughs.
Innovative Materials: From Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator to Smart Membranes
Sir Konstantin showcased how Chemistry progresses in the field of materials science. He showed examples of researchers worldwide working with materials like graphene and regularly identifying exciting phenomena. 40 years ago, Dan Shechtman discovered the quasi-cristalls.
Insights Into Supramolecular Chemistry and Nanoscale Imaging
During #LINO22, Jean-Marie Lehn told his audience about the exciting applications of supramolecular chemistry. William E. Moerner explained how revolutions in spatial resolution are changing cellular imaging.
After an exciting week full of personal encounters, scientific debates and inspirational talks, the 71st Lindau Meeting has come to an end. The day on Mainau Island rounded off our week.
