Summary

The Grete Hermann Network (GHN) is an international network of female researchers in condensed matter physics that is comprised of both junior researchers and experienced professors, and is associated with the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat – Complexity and Topology in Quantum Matter, which is funded by the German federal government. At the heart of the network's mission is the goal to promote excellent female-led research and support the recruitment and careers of female scientists within the field. To achieve this, the GHN provides networking and mentoring opportunities, increases visibility of female senior scientists as role models, and creates a comprehensive pool of female researchers in view of future hirings.

The GHN workshop is an excellent opportunity to further these goals. It will encompass scientific talks and events for a general audience of condensed matter physicists (of all genders) with broad research interests and involving all career levels; furthermore, dedicated social meetings will offer the network’s members a chance to connect in a less formal setting. We invite you to join us and contribute to the GHN's mission of bringing together and raising the profile of female condensed matter physicists, and are looking forward to your participation!
