Reinforcement for the Communication team
The communication potential of the diverse topics in SimTech can be explored even more with the two new colleagues Manuela Mild and Tabea Siegle. Under the coordination of Sabine Sämisch, the team will take on new projects and advance science communication in SimTech even further.
Manuela Mild has been part of the new trio since mid-May. She has experience in PR, journalism and science communication and was most recently employed at the former Cluster of Excellence LEAD and the Hector Institute for Empirical Educational Research at the University of Tübingen. Primarily, she will foster the area of research communication. Tabea Siegle joined the team at the beginning of June and has just graduated with a Master's degree in Media Studies from the University of Tübingen. She plans to bring her experience from corporate communications and media practice to her topics such as student marketing, internal communications and social media. The topics of event management, strategy and outreach will be the focus of Sabine Sämisch. With the new perspectives and the valuable expertise of the two colleagues, SimTech wants to further promote and expand the highly relevant area of science transfer.
Strengthend Research Data Management team
The research data management team is growing as well. With Fangfang Wang, an experienced research software engineer joins the team consisting of Sibylle Hermann, Jan Range and Sarbani Roy. Fangfang Wang performs data set reviews and works on designing and developing data-oriented workflows and tools to support efficient and effective research data management. She earned her bachelor's degree in Management Information Systems in Wuhan, and a dual master's degrees in Computer Science and Industrial Engineering in the US and Sweden. Before joining SimTech, she worked as a teaching assistant at Georgia Tech.
Being a strong force in SimTech, this reinforcement will allow research data as an important ressource to be even more effectively processed, digitized and also used interdisciplinary in the future.
