Exploring the dynamics of change in urban and rural spaces: “Sustainable Rurbanity”

Congratulations to researchers here and at Uni Kassel on their new DFG interdisciplinary Research Unit: “Sustainable Rurbanity – Resources, Society, and Regulatory Systems”

The Unit will involve researchers in social science, geography, agriculture, forestry and more - across Germany as well as in India, Ghana and Morocco: https://www.uni-goettingen.de/en/3240.html?id=7857

New events announced: https://goettingen-campus.de/postdoc-event

Organised for researchers across Göttingen and everyone welcome. Postdoc Social on Thurs 10 July. Join researchers for a Walk&Talk on 25 July and check out the #ScienceCommunication club meet-ups.

If you are a postdoc, get with the #GCPostdocNetwork: https://goettingen-campus.de/postdoc. We are already planning Göttingen’s #PostdocFair2026 on 12 March 2026

Eva Miranda, our Uni’s Gauss Professor 2025, speaks about research, legacy and the challenges of building a career in Mathematics.

Her academic life moves across borders: geographical, disciplinary, and institutional. You’ll get a taste of her latest research and why she has brought a rubber duck with her. See this 6-minute YouTube clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GZuuWmc1-A

She has managed to shake off the dust of a male-dominated world and move forward - creating space not only for herself, but for the women mathematicians of today and tomorrow.

What is the future of work and how will we navigate it?

Congratulations to everyone involved here and at Osnabrück for the new DFG Scientific Network, “New Realities of Global Work: Interdisciplinary Perspectives and Integrative Approaches”. This international research network will research the changing dynamics of global virtual collaboration in the digital age.

Sustainability studies is an #academicDiscipline that examines #sustainability through an #interdisciplinary lens. Programs may include instruction in #sustainableDevelopment, #geography, #agriculture, #environmentalPolicies, #ethics, #ecology, #landscapeArchitecture, #urbanPlanning, #regionalPlanning, #economics, #naturalResources, #sociology, and #anthropology. Sustainability studies also consider issues such as #climateChange, #poverty, #socialJustice and #environmentalJustice.

#emdiplomacy is full of social interactions going wrong. Historians usually analyse them as misunderstandings.
Perhaps a "sociology of awkwardness" could offer new insights und perspectives for #diplomatichistory

Look, I’d really like to help with your surveys, but I’m already getting stuck at the first question!

#Philosophy and #logic should be required courses valued in any #STEM #education, not "liberal arts" electives. #Science desperately needs #interdisciplinary thinkers to #innovate pressing #problems, not #groupthink #human robots marching in lockstep to #ConventionalWisdom

Not based at #UCPH? No problem!

Health Data Science Day 2025 is open to #students, #researchers, and #professionals across Denmark and beyond

Happening on 6 November in #Copenhagen, it’s a #FREE, #interdisciplinary event celebrating where #health meets #data

#Posters. #LightningTalks. Great coffee. New #connections.

Join the fun: https://heads.ku.dk/calendar/2025/events/hdsd2025/
Deadline is 1st of October

#Interdisciplinary perspectives at RLI:
Today we had the pleasure to welcome Noemi Calidori at RLI and could listen to her talk on her dissertation: Philosophical Thoughts on the Just #EnergyTransition

Just like Noemi, we at RLI work on the energy transition - from a different angle. Today we could see, where the technical and the philosophical perspectives touch – and why we all should care more about bats , and make the energy transition fair for everyone.

New events by #GCPostdocNetwork: https://goettingen-campus.de/postdoc-event

Happy to announce that the Federal Ministry of Women, #Science and #Research included our lecture "Aspects of Digitalisation: Generative Artificial Intelligence" in their Atlas of Good #Teaching! https://gutelehre.at/projekt/aspekte-der-digitalisierung-generative-kuenstliche-intelligenz

Our gratitude goes to Joanna Chimiak-Opoka for coordinating the lecture and to all 16 involved instructors!

I think this is a really nice way to teach the scientific process, identifying creative (night) and formal (day) elements, both being essential

Happy to announce a new community, Autaxys and Autology, as an open #journal for anyone to share relevant #research and collaborate on this emerging #interdisciplinary field of study:

https://zenodo.org/communities/autaxys/

Check out Zenodo if you're not familiar, a platform for truly #openaccess research #publication and #knowledge sharing supported by the #EU. As a new user, I was pleasantly surprised to upload my research easily and even get a #DOI effortlessly.

#Academic "disciplines" will be very different in the #future, not by subject but more by application. Do you want to be a practitioner of some art/science/business or an #interdisciplinary thinker? The latter includes not only the world of #physics, energy, and #space time, but also the abstract realms of #information, laws, and even #consciousness.

Are you a postdoc in Göttingen?

Here’s what the GC Postdoc Network did for postdocs last academic year. What can we do better? Or differently? How would you make Göttingen a better place for researchers? Get in touch or join us at an event to let us know.
