Today we made our voices heard as scientists in Germany. As someone with an immigrant background, I am even more vulnerable. The scrapped proposal by the BMBF heightened the precarious situation that we already have. #FightWissZeitVG #WissZeitVG

Currently enjoying the science and sceneries here at Lindau. The second day is about to start and I’m beyond excited! #LINO23

Michael Levitt on Artificial Intelligence at #LINO23 a refreshing take on AI grounded on biological concepts.

Had the pleasure of hearing Stefan Hell’s journey - up close and personal. Such a visionary from the very beginning and I marvel at his perseverance! #LINO23 Haven’t listened to any of his talks since my time as a MolBio student at Göttingen years ago.

Really cool to have caught up with Ninadini Sharma Ozge_Ozcete from my time at MPI for Multidisciplinary Sciences. Crazy how Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings can reconnect individuals too! Representing Molbios and Neuros! 🔬🧠 #LINO23 #Göttingen #IMPRS
