It’s Postdoc Appreciation Week!

 

This week the global scientific community celebrates the Postdoc Appreciation Week (PAW) which was started in 2009 in the US by the National Postdoctoral Association to recognize the significant contributions postdocs and researchers make towards research and academic life in general. The PAW is also widely celebrated in the UK and Ireland and since 2022 also in Germany. The Research and Innovation Services of the Leibniz University of Hannover (LUH) teamed up with the Munich Postdoc Network (particularly Helmholtz Munich and the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry) to establish this initiative in Germany. This year the PAW Germany coordination team invited researchers and research institutions, postdoc coordinators and research administrators all over Germany to join in creating a special program, events and a social media campaign to honor the incredible work of postdocs!

ML4Q took the chance to feature and recognize the impressive achievements of postdocs who are associated to the cluster. During the week, single postdocs and their profiles will be published on the cluster’s blog ML4Q Stories. Of course, there are many more postdocs in ML4Q (currently 45) who weren’t featured this week, who we, however, would like to acknowledge. Some of them are in the picture below and some of them were featured in our video series Next Stop ML4Q.

All of them are contributing to pursue our scientific mission and to teach next generations of physicists while they are advancing in their own career and scientific independence in academia or outside. We wish you all the best and hope this career stage is one of your favorites.
