Prof. Dr. Markus List & Annelore Hermann

Annelore Hermann is specialized in communication and science management. In the conduction the Journal Club, she enjoys creating a space in which doctoral students can present, exchange and discuss ideas. Curiosity, changing perspectives and an open mind are essential in research and attitudes that we strengthen as part of the Journal Club.

Prof List supervises the course and supports the participants in the contextualisation of the scientific work discussed.
