Young Leaders Program: IWM Researcher Selected Again for STS Forum in Kyoto

For the second year in a row, an IWM researcher has been selected to participate in the Science and Technology in Society (STS) Forum in Kyoto, Japan. Prof. Marlit Lindner, head of the Leibniz Research Group on Digitalisation and Education at the IWM, was nominated by Leibniz President Martina Brockmeier and selected by the Forum.

The renowned STS Forum, which celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2023, is a global meeting place for influential figures from politics, science and industry who use the platform to discuss the major scientific and technological challenges facing humanity. The highlight of the Forum's Young Leaders Programme is the "Dialogue between Young Leaders and Nobel Laureates".

 Reflecting on her experience, Marlit Lindner says: "It is truly inspiring; you get to meet a lot of fascinating people. Interacting with 13 Nobel Laureates was a remarkable experience. Being part of this special conference is something I am very grateful for".
