Notice how every hostile state and autocrat absolutely despises the EU and its regulations?
That is a pretty good sign those rules are actually protecting us.

Schrödinger’s Equation Turns 100 🎉
On 27 Jan. 1926, the journal Annalen der Physik received Schrödinger’s manuscript for the first of his four papers on “Quantisation as an Eigenvalue problem”. 🐈
Follow the journey from the original papers to the laboratories & technologies shaping the next century.

Reminder, the ACS Inclusivity Style Guide still does not include Gender & Sexuality nor Race, Ethnicity, and Sexuality. They were removed almost a year ago. Something tells me, it isn't a pause on those two sections. Review & refinement shouldn't take a year. #ChemSky #ChemChat

Wir befinden uns in einem dramatischen Wettlauf gegen die Zeit, die schlimmsten Klimafolgen (Verlust von vielen Küstenstädten, Hungersnöte, Konflikte, Kipppunkte etc.) noch abzuwenden, und die Politik macht…
Bislang hat die Wissenschaft die Klimaerwärmung korrekt vorhergesagt.
The Faculty has recently opened a wide variety of PhD positions dealing with fascinating physical phenomena, from isotopes to spin waves and carbon nanotubes to low-dimensional materials!

On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science I (as in previous years) take an Implicit Association Test to remind myself of my potential biases and with the goal of remembering to take them into account
You too can do this at:

Today is the 👩🔬International Day of Women and Girls in Science🔬
This UN-established day promotes gender equality in science fields.
Many of the scientists from our Faculty have joined to give a clear message to all interested girls and young women:

IMHO ist es ein bissel komplexer. Latein an sich ist nicht auf jeden Fall überflüssig. Es sollte durchaus Leute geben, die da Kompetenz haben. Wir auch in Chinesisch, Japanisch ... usw. Mehr als diskutabel ist aber die Unterstellung, Bildung sei ohne Kenntnis des Lateinischen rudimentär.
