I am Managing Director at the National Institute for Science Communication, NaWik, in Karlsruhe, Germany. We offer diverse courses in science communication for scientists – from writing to social media, from interview to risk communication and more. I have a diploma in chemistry and a background of nearly two decades as a science writer. Social media for scientists are ideal for the direct interaction and a dialogue with the public or on an interdisciplinary level. So I launched and established Scienceblogs in Germany in 2007 and I worked as a social media consultant for several Laureate Meetings – the Nobel Week Dialogue, the Heidelberg Laureate Forum and the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings.

As Director of NaWik I have had the pleasure of participating in various committees and juries for years, such as e.g. Jury Wissenschaftsjahre des BMBF (Vorsitz 2016 - 2021), Expert SciComm Wissenschaftsrat, Jury FastForwardScience, Strategiekommission Akademienunion, Steering Committee #FactoryWissKomm BMBF …
