As LeTSGEPs, we are very proud to support “Fundamental Questions. Gender Dimensions in Max Planck Projects”, an important book by our partner, Max Planck, that will be officially presented on the 1st of June (see invitation details below).
For the first time, the Max Planck Society is publishing an anthology on gender research, “Fundamental Questions”. Thanks to the broad spectrum of disciplines and cultures represented in the Research Association, the authors, who come from various institutes, present their findings in numerous fields of research: law, art history, history of science, neuroscience and computer science. The approaches, topics, issues and methodology of the collected contributions are equally diverse. This diversity shows in the best possible way that the integration of the gender perspective is beneficial not only for applied science and development, but also for basic research. With contributions by Dr. Laura A. Bechthold, Elifcan Celebi, Dr. Marina Chugunova, Dr. Luisa Stella de Oliveira Coutinho Silva, Svenja Friess, Ph.D. Giorgia Gastaldon, Dr. Lisa Hanstein, Dr. Philine Helas, Prof. Karin Hoisl, Ph.D. Michael E. Rose, Esra Sarioglu, Isabel Valera and Dr. Ulla Weber.

How are gender aspects embedded into the research projects of the Max Planck Society? What questions arise from the interdisciplinary interaction of gender and basic research? Which approaches, projects and research initiatives already exist, and which could / should be established?
These are FUNDAMENTAL QUESTIONS that Birgit Kolboske, Isabel Valera and Gunda Wössner, Max Planck scientists and authors, will discuss on the occasion of introducing the newly-published anthology of the same name.
