Ziel ist es, direkte Kontakte zu Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern herzustellen und so die Bevölkerung Natur- wissenschaft und Technik konkreter erleben zu lassen. Laut »Eurobarometer« sind 37% der Bevölkerung in Deutschland an neuen Erfindungen und Technologien sehr interessiert. Die Wissenschaftsjahre richten sich auch gezielt an die jüngste Generation, den wissenschaftlichen Nach- wuchs: Es soll Lust gemacht werden auf eine Zukunft als Forscherin oder Forscher. Dabei ist die Rolle von Vorbildern besonders wichtig. Junge Leute, speziell junge Frauen, haben wenig Chancen, Physikerinnen im Beruf zu erleben, weil aktuell an deutschen Hochschulen weniger als 4% Professorinnen in der Physik lehren; dies sind nur 50 Professorinnen gegenüber 1.750 Professoren. Im »Einsteinjahr 2005« steht zum ersten Mal nicht ein Wissenschaftsgebiet, sondern eine berühmte Forscher- persönlichkeit im Mittelpunkt eines Wissenschaftsjahres.

  • Introduction Women Researchers in Industrial Laboratories: Trends And
    INTRODUCTION WOMEN RESEARCHERS IN INDUSTRIAL LABORATORIES: TRENDS AND PERSPECTIVES Renate Tobies and Annette B. Vogt Our primary aim in this introduction is to formulate a number of theses regarding the factors and parameters that determined the careers of women in industrial laboratories during the first decades of the twentieth century. These theses derive from our own long-standing investigations about female scientists and female re- searchers and their career paths,1 on the chapters written by our colleagues in this book, and on the many discussions that this collaboration incited. Here we would like to describe the trends of this relatively new research field, to analyze its de- velopment, and to enumerate some of the overarching issues that have informed this book and that will prove relevant to further studies. The following theses can be thought of as a summary of Women in Industrial Research, and we hope that they might also serve to instigate discussions in the future. Thesis 1 Approximately from the year 1900 onwards, equal access to education at all school and university levels and access to academic careers were preconditions that enabled women to join industrial research laboratories. In countries where access to educational institutions, especially to universities, was less dependent on state regulations, some female scientists were able to ob- tain positions in engineering and industrial research laboratories. Based on in- ternational comparisons, Ilse Costas developed an explanatory model for women’s access to academic careers.2 For careers in industrial laboratories, our investiga- tions have confirmed that the preconditions in these fields were similar.

NETWORKS OF AN ACADEMIC WORLD COMMUNITY: THE EXODUS OF GERMAN-SPEAKING WOMEN SCIENTISTS AND THE REFUGEE AID PROGRAM OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN Christine von Oertzen On the same day that the second American atomic bomb destroyed Nagasaki, Japan, an article appeared in the Washington Post titled "Nazi Boomerang."1 Its author claimed that Germany's women scientists had had the last word after being persecuted with particular severity by the Nazi regime. According to the article, it was Lise Meitner's discovery of atomic fission that permitted development of the atomic bomb, which was now finally bringing the fascist Axis powers to their knees. The article cited Meitner, an Austrian Jew, as an example of how women had successfully fought for the freedom of the sciences and the survival of women scientists in Europe. When the Nazis removed Meitner from her position at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Berlin in 1938, she fled to Copenhagen, eventually finding her way to the Academy of Sciences in Stockholm with the help of the Swedish Association of University Women.

  • Google Doodle Honors Hedwig Kohn, German-American Physicist
    Google Doodle Honors Hedwig Kohn, German-American Physicist Google celebrates Hedwig Kohn on what would have been her 132nd birthday, highlighting her amazing achievements. Born in 1887, Hedwig Kohn had her fair share of challenges and obstacles in her life. One of the most noteworthy achievements was becoming one of only three women to obtain qualification to teach at a university in physics in Germany before World War II. However, she was forced to leave her home country during the Nazi regime due to her Jewish heritage. As a Jewish woman, Kohn was dismissed from her teaching position in 1933, and survived by doing contract research projects in industrial physics within the lighting industry. In 1940, she fled to the United States where she pursued her dream of teaching at the Women’s College of the University of North Carolina and Wellesley College in Massachusetts. She didn’t stop there though. She mentored Ph.D. students in her basement laboratory to help develop her research and work in flame spectroscopy. Kohn’s journey out of Nazi held Germany was not an easy one. As the Jewish were starting to be taken to concentration camps, Kohn set her plan into action to get to the United States. However, obtaining a work visa proved almost impossible with the Nazi restrictions put on her ability to teach and reach at the university. She finally made it out in July 1940 on a visa to Sweden, then onto the U.S. to teach. Kohn was lucky though, as in less than a year later, her brother was deported and killed.

As a child I must have seen her picture in Life , or in The New York Times , or perhaps in the Aufbau , the German refugees' newspaper that my parents and grandmother often read. In America just after World War II, Lise Meitner was a celebrity: the tiny woman who barely escaped the Nazis, the physicist responsible for nuclear fission, "the Jewish mother of the atomic bomb" although she was a Jew by birth, not affiliation, and she had refused to work on the bomb. When I was six, the details didn't matter. To me, she was a hero, like Eleanor Roosevelt. I came back to Meitner thirty years later, in the 1970s, by way of a class I taught at California State University, Sacramento. Then, as now, I was on the chemistry faculty at Sacramento City College, a community college. At the university, I was known as the woman the all-male chemistry department did not want to hire; under such circumstances one becomes, and remains, a file://F:\download\hyotyohjelmat\meitner\Lise Meitner.htm 20.7.2006 Lise Meitner Page 2 of 443 feminist.
