SYWQ: Symposium Hidden Variables: Contributions of Women to Quantum Physics

SYWQ 1: Hidden Variables: Contributions of Women to Quantum Physics

Donnerstag, 13. März 2025, 11:00–13:00, HS 1+2

As in almost all areas of physics, women are underrepresented in quantum physics. To make things worse, in history, scientific contributions by women are often hidden. Also in current research, women are faced with obstacles that impede visibility of their work. This symposium will take a look at both our view of the history of women’s contributions to quantum phyics, as well as the current situation where women are too often faced with a seriously uncomfortable environment. The assessment prompts us to rethink models of scientific community and leadership and explore new avenues for defining academic authority.
