Gender inequality in science is a well-known phenomenon, e.g. for engineering domains in Germany. To compensate this, several activities of DFG and further institutions strive to support women to start studying these (e.g. STEM) subjects and/or stay in science. One result of the MemrisTec internal discussion was the setup of a MemrisTec Women Network discussing fitting measures to support women also with a limited budget.
To spotlight and discuss specifically the barriers of female researchers, some individuals from the MemrisTec Women Network invited friends to a Movie Night with the documentary „Picture a Scientist“ (2020, 93min). They met in small groups in different cities and discussed after watching the documentary how to better act locally to seal the “leaky pipeline”…



The 2023 episode of the MemrisTec Summer Schools will bring interested students and researchers in the european capital of micro- and nanoelectronics.

MemrisTec2023 in Frankfurt (Oder)

At MemrisTec2023 Teams from all nine projects of the DFG SPP 2262 Memristec met for 3 days in Frankfurt (Oder) at IHP to synchronize their progress during the last year.

For the upcoming extension of MemrisTec the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) would like set up the second phase of the research program as a commonly funded collaboration – and by this leveraging the world-class expertise of German and US scientists to better understand the physical phenomena underlying memristor operation, which, in turn, may accelerate the development of emerging research areas of world-wide scientific interest, such as non-volatile memory, in-memory processing, neuromorphic computing, and machine learning.
To initiate this more than 50 scientists from USA and Germany met on 2.2.2023 at TU Dresden, Germany, or joined online, to discuss the achievable research goals, develop ideas for project collaborations and support the directions of the call planned to be publicly announced in March/April 2023.
