Our SFB1313 post-doctoral researcher Samaneh Vahid Dastjerdi from the University of Stuttgart (Institute for Applied Mechanics, CE) is one of the Zia Fellows 2024/25 of the Zeitverlag Gerd Bucerius Gmbh & Co. Kg. SFB 1313 supports Samaneh Vahid Dastjerdi in cooperation with the Pooling "Synergies for equal opportunities in collaborative research networks" of the University of Stuttgart. The program will not only support female scientists, but also support the fellows in how to communicate their research the best way possible.
About the Zia "Visible Women in Science" Fellowship Program
The ZEIT Zia fellowship program is an initiative that aims to support female scientists in their career and personal development in cooperation with partners, supporters and sponsors. It's about female empowering, networking and science communication.
During one year, the fellows will of course have different networking meetings with each other, but they will also be participating in different workshops, e.g. in a Nawik science communication workshop, specifically aiming to learn how to communicate their own research the best way possible: that means to make their research accessible and to communicate it in an easy understandable way. Even all of the fellows are researchers, they are all working in different disciplines.
The fellows and their research will all be presented in a DIE ZEIT print paper, published in December 2024, as well as online on the Zia website. Furthermore, the fellows will conduct an audio interview that will be published via the Zia website.
