Discovering physics in a whole new light was the aim of Girls'Day, April 22. At this day it was possible to look behind the curtain of the scientific work of the department of physics and astronomy at Heidelberg University. Welcomed by the dean of the department for physics and astronomy, 120 young girls from all over Germany took part in twelve extraordinary online workshops with diverse topics such as black holes, programming with robots, mysteries of light and the universe.
We thank all participating scientists and are looking forward to taking part next year again. The Girls`Day was jointly supported by STRUCTURESthe Collaborative Research Centre 1225 "Isolated Quantum Systems and universality in extreme conditions", the Collaborative Research Centre 881 "The Milky Way System" and the HighRR Research Training Group.
