The Steering Committee
We call ourselves the “Steering Committee” because we could not find a better name. In reality, LeadNet is “self-steered” and in many ways, it is what its members choose it to be. The current committee wishes to continue the “all for one, one for all” spirit which fosters a closely-knit community of junior research leaders of the Max Planck Society. In the next symposium on May 28-29, 2020 we would like to discuss any improvements that can be made to our organizational structure. We, therefore, encourage members to attend the “Future of LeadNet” welcome address.
We organize the LeadNet meetings on a voluntary basis and are therefore constantly looking for new members to play an active role in LeadNet. There are many ways to contribute besides being part of the committee, for example, you can initiate and coordinate a workshop.
In case you are interested in contributing to LeadNet, please contact the current members of the committee listed below.
Steering Committee Members
The LeadNet Homepage is powered by the Max Planck Digital Library
LeadNet has teamed up with the Max Planck Digital Library (MPDL) to provide all information regarding the LeadNet Symposium on this website. This includes creating and updating the website and promoting LeadNet through better communication between the different institutes. The idea behind this new form of cooperation between LeadNet and the MPDL is to allow the current and future steering committees to focus on the thematic and program aspects of the symposium.
Our main partner at the MPDL is Karmelina Kulpa.
We are very grateful to Matias Hernandez and Gunda Wößner for their support during this transition period in the organization of LeadNet. We would also like to thank Ilka Schießler-Gäbler from the MPG general administration for her support.
