Video portraits of women in science
The videos are part of the series "Women in science at RPTU introduce themselves" by the Equal Opportunities, Diversity and Family Unit and the central equal opportunities officers of the RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau. The aim is to present video portraits of female scientists, their way there, their experiences, motivations and goals. How is it possible to combine science and career, research and teaching, family and leisure time?
