38 degrees in Würzburg – and still a great atmosphere!
Yesterday, the first women's lunch break took place at the Fraunhofer ISC – initiated by @unterlasslab.bsky.social
Prof. Unterlass herself broke the ice – and sponsored the ice cream.
It was great. And we'll be doing it more often!
More support. More visibility. More opportunities for young women scientists. And we’re just getting started.
Congrats to our colleagues Lisa Brändler and Mara Göttlinger, who received their TALENTA start certificates from Prof. Dr. Unterlass yesterday.
