How to stop the revolving door of German academia
Germany is one of the most popular destinations for students and scholars worldwide, but those pursuing academic careers face significant hurdles to success.
What has to change in the German academic system? In my opinion, achievements should be rewarded. Some countries have criteria for in-house promotions & tenure in place. In Germany, that is very difficult. Our anti nepotism laws make it hard. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

After 1.5 years of rejections, my project has finally been #approved for funding - my first-ever grant!
It’s been a tough road, but I stayed with it.
The journey ahead won’t be easy, but I’m ready to give it my all.
#Grateful. #Hopeful. #Energized.
Details to follow soon.
