BEMC: "Causal confusions correlate with casual conclusions”Location: Paul Ehrlich Hörsaal (Campus Charité Mitte) or onlineJulia Rohrer from Leipzig University will give a talk entitled "Causal confusions correlate with casual conclusions”
"Correlation does not imply causation; some fields of research have taken this as a reason to teach causal inference primarily in the context of randomized experiments. This has led to some confusion about, for example, the purpose of prediction, and the utility of longitudinal data. In this talk, I will suggest that some of this may be strategic: Being ambiguous about the purpose of an analysis can be a way to have your cake and eat it too. I will discuss potential countermeasures, such as restructuring methods training and requiring transparency about estimands on the journal level."

- Decision Making: Conditions – Tools – OpportunitiesLocation: online
Intuitively, you probably know more about yourself and others than you are aware of. Intuition can guide your decision making – but how to reconcile it with more analytic decision-making approaches? This course invites you to deliberately and critically explore your intuition, test new decision-making tools and share your experiences with other course participants. Being aware of your intuition is likely to help you in taking good private and professional decisions. Taking good decisions will save you energy, get you where you want to be and boost your motivation. During your work as a Postdoc, you may need to make difficult life choices, decide on a career path, and re-think the modes of your collegial interactions. Do you sometimes struggle with taking decisions or with finding the right mode of interaction? Would you like to change something, but you do not know how? Then this course is for you.

- Academic Choices – Non Academic Choices: Deciding between the twoLocation: online
In the years after completing their doctorate, many doctoral graduates are faced with the question of whether they want to stay in academia or whether they want to pursue a career outside academia. The question is not an easy one, especially because there are very few permanent positions available in academia in the long term. How can postdocs make a good decision here? What skills are in demand inside and outside academia? What can help to assess the prospects of success as realistically as possible? In this short online workshop, we will explore these questions and develop initial hypotheses against the background of the participants’ individual situations.

Karrierestrategien auf dem Weg zur Professur: (Zukunfts- und) Karriereplanung für PostdocsLocation: ZEWK TU Berlin, Fraunhofer Str. 33-36, 10587 Berlin, Raum FH 1004Wer nach der Promotion den Weg der Wissenschaftskarriere weiterverfolgt, steht immer wieder vor der Frage: In der Wissenschaft bleiben oder gehen? In der Postdoc Phase ist es besonders wichtig, auch früh Karriere relevante Entscheidungen zu treffen, um eigene Weichen auf dem weiteren Weg zur Professur oder/für alternative Karrierewege innerhalb oder außerhalb des Hochschulsystems zu stellen. (Zukunfts- und) Karriereplanung ist dabei hilfreich, die eigene Vision einer auch künftig zufriedenstellenden Arbeit (weiter) zu entwickeln, die eigenen Stärken und Wünsche zu fokussieren, um die anstehenden Entscheidungen oder sich zufällig ergebende beruflichen Optionen selbstreflektierter und zielbewusster einzuschätzen. Ein durchdachter Karriereplan unterstützt Postdocs auch, motiviert die anstehenden Herausforderungen, ihre wissenschaftliche Profilierung und Hürden zu managen und dabei die eigene Gesundheit und Life-Work-Balance nicht außer Acht zu lassen.

- Grant Proposal WritingLocation: online
Successful grant proposal writing is a fundamental basis to fund a career in research. There are plenty of national and international funding programs with different funding schemes. Each scheme has its individual context and thematic focus, eligibility and funding rules, submission and evaluation process, and evaluation criteria. Thus, the detailed features and aspects of a successful proposal in one funding scheme are naturally differing from those of a successful proposal in another funding scheme. However, the process of how to work out these details is a common denominator to the different funding schemes. It requires skills way beyond the ability to work out a research idea in detail.

- 41st Blankenese Conference on SynaptopathiesLocation: Hamburg, Germany
Brain disorders are frequently associated with dysfunction of chemical synapses – either causally due to functional impairment of specific synaptic elements or as a consequence of other disease mechanisms that disturb the functionality of these highly complex molecular machines for neuronal communication. In many cases, it is difficult to distinguish which of the two possibilities applies, although this information may be very important for potential treatment strategies. The term “Synaptopathies” has been coined for this highly diverse group of diseases. They can have acquired or genetic causes and can be due to malfunctions in neurodevelopment, neurodegenerative processes or abnormal interactions with other body organs such as the immune system. At the 41st Blankenese Conference, experts dealing with these different aspects of the impairment of brain synapses will meet to discuss current and future strategies to discover disease mechanisms and ways to combat Synaptopathies.

What are the paths to a professorship? How can this phase be structured so that the chances of success are as high as possible? What else is important besides enthusiasm for the subject? These questions will be addressed in this workshop so that each participant is clear about the next steps.

- 59. Jahrestagung der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Neuroradiologie e.V.
Das Motto des neurorad 2024 lautet: Gemeinsam Zukunft gestalten. Die aktuelle Situation in einem belasteten Gesundheitssystem zeigt uns täglich unsere Grenzen und unsere Chancen auf: Strukturelle Herausforderungen, der zunehmende Mangel an qualifiziertem ärztlichen und nicht-ärztlichen Nachwuchs oder neue technische Entwicklungen können nur gemeinsam gemeistert werden. Dazu zählt auch das Thema Nachhaltigkeit in der Neuroradiologie, dem wir in diesem Herbst einen eigenen Schwerpunkt geben möchten. Aber natürlich wartet unsere Tagung auch wieder mit klinischen Themenblöcken, u.a. zur vaskulären Neuroradiologie, zur Neuro-Onkologie oder zur Neurodegeneration auf. Darüber hinaus werden wir uns mit Neuen Bildgebungstechniken, der Kopf-Hals-Radiologie und dem Strahlenschutz in der Interventionellen Neuroradiologie beschäftigen.

- Deutscher Schmerzkongress 2024
Die schmerzmedizinische Versorgung steht derzeit vor besonderen Herausforderungen. Wie in allen Bereichen der Medizin fehlt es an qualifiziertem Fachpersonal, der ökonomische Druck ist immens gewachsen, Freiräume für wissenschaftliches Arbeiten oder Weiterentwickelung von Konzepten sind deutlich eingeschränkt.
Stärken wir das Wir, indem WIR gemeinsam Konzepte und Strategien für die Zukunft entwickeln, uns gegen Heterogenität der Versorgungszugänge für die Betroffenen, gegen die teils stark unterschiedlichen Bedingungen der Betreuung und für eine angemessene Finanzierung in einem Versorgungsbereich mit hoher Personalzeitbindung einsetzen.
