What effect has the European debt crisis on science? Carsten Könneker, chief editor of Spektrum der Wissenschaft, discussed this topic with Prof. Helga Nowotny, president of the prestigious European Research Council ERC.
For AcademiaNet, this year's Euroscience Open Forum was a special event: For the first time, the portal to excellent female academics presented itself in English to a large international audience. At the AcademiaNet stand, participants and journalists could meet female keynote speakers and other potential interview partners.
