@trr341.bsky.social
We are a transregional collaborative research centre funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). We address the basic question: What are the genetic underpinnings of plant adaptation to environmental change? https://trr341.uni-koeln.de/
// Seniorprofessuren //
Die neue Richtlinie für Seniorprofessuren ist in Kraft! Seniorprofessuren ermöglichen herausragenden Wissenschaftler*innen, auch nach dem Dienstende an der @unicologne.bsky.social wissenschaftlich aktiv zu bleiben. #uniköln

And they have only done it 2-3x in their life. Had a whole discussion of how writing helps the author. I think we might have a major problem.

How do I integrate #gender and #diversity dimensions into the planning and implementation of #research projects and third-party funding applications?
The workshop will show the extent to which gender aspects can be integrated in research processes!
