20th Women in Physics Conference

What are current questions in research? What are women physicists investigating? Are the strategies for the promotion of women still up to date? The 20^th Women in Physics Conference, where female physicists from all career levels met on Campus Bahrenfeld, was marked by scientific and sociopolitical discussions. Together with the Department of Physics at Universität Hamburg, CUI had organized the 20. Deutsche Physikerinnentagung (DPT) from 3 – 6 November 2016 in Hamburg. The DPT is an annual conference of the German Physical Society (Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, DPG) and its working group for equal opportunities (Arbeitskreis Chancengleichheit, AKC).
