This is Ocean Voices - The Voice of Early Career Researchers in Marine Sciences More info
Last year in summer I finished my Master’s degree. I was, and still am, very much in love with science, and enjoyed my research-focussed program a lot. No surprise that I wanted to pursue a scientific career, and that I was very happy I had managed to secure a PhD position as the next step […]
November 2023, ich stehe auf der großen Bühne in der Pumpe, einem Veranstaltungszentrum in Kiel.

Generating new knowledge? Yes, but I was somewhat unaware of the consequences for me as a scientist. In a nutshell: […]
Being a scientist involves more than just doing experiments, analyzing problems or sitting in front of the computer, staring at data – it’s also about connecting with other scientists and communicating our work. At OceanVoices, we’re all about creating a space for young ocean researchers to share their experiences and scientific ideas and give them […]
‘What we know is a drop, what we do not know is an ocean.’ – Isaac Newton. Marine science and art together – can that work at all? And what exactly is supposed to come out of it? With these questions in mind and a portion of scepticism, this spring I was on my way […]
