IP Freshwaters - Annual Retreat 2024
We cordially invite all scientists and PhD students working within the Integration Platform (IP) Freshwaters to the Annual Retreat 2024.
The Meeting will take place at the Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research (UFZ) - KUBUS in Leipzig, on September 10-11 2024.

Building on the formats of our previous IP workshops in Barby 2022 and Ottersleben 2023, we once again would like to engage with you in discussions on our research within the Research Unit Water and Environment and across the RUs. The workshop will provide an opportunity to connect and synthesize some of our exciting research and outreach along multi-disciplinary lines. This especially to further strengthen and expand our collaborations and fine-tune our research portfolio in the light of the upcoming evaluation in February 2025. Besides the interesting scientific discussions there will be ample room to also socialize and have a good time together.
The aim of the IP Workshop is to:
- Inform and be informed – current achievements in the IP
- Prepare for the UFZ scientific evaluation in February 2025 - status quo and next steps
- Support alignment of own work towards common goals of Platform Projects / Integration Platform / UFZ
- Maintain the exchange across Departments and RUs
- Bring in a view from / to the outside - lecture by and discussion with an external guest
- "BBQ"
We are especially looking forward to your posters – new or recycled – for the session in the afternoon of Day 1. You can register the posters together with your personal registration.
