Yesterday’s full-day workshop co-organised with @imbmainz.bsky.social focused on building a strategic approach to research funding for postdocs.

We’re proud to stand behind our postdocs as they shape the future of research!

Last week our #SFB1361 members gathered in Würzburg to discuss and plan for the 3rd funding period.

This 3-day retreat led to many fruitful discussions and fresh ideas! Now its time to put these ideas to work! 🔬⚗️🧬

Our members came from Mainz, Frankfurt, Darmstadt, and Munich to Würzburg for this retreat to discuss, network, and plan for the next years.
We also took the opportunity to visit the Würzburg Residence and immerse ourselves in the art, culture, and history!

(1/2) Have you thought about using AI Assistants? How and where can these tools help us? Our researchers were surely excited to explore!

We jointly organised a 2-day workshop on "Using AI Assistants to Increase Productivity" to provide the initial stepping stones to use these tools.
