Room: Wegelerstr. 10 - Seminar Room 2.019 - 53115 Bonn What were Albert Einstein's first wife’s contributions to his extraordinary productivity in the first years of his career? A first biography of Mileva Marić Einstein was published in Serbian in 1969 but remained largely unknown despite being translated first in German, then in French in the 1990’s. The publication of Mileva and Albert’s love letters in 1987 revealed how they lived together while two recent publications shed more light on Mileva Marić’s life and work. I will review this evidence in its social and historical context to give a better idea of her contributions. In this presentation, I avoid all type of speculation and do not attack Albert Einstein personally, but rather strictly stick to facts. The audience will be able to appreciate why such a talented physicist has been so unkindly treated by history.

Room: Wegelerstr. 10 - Seminar Room 2.019 - 53115 Bonn In 2020, the MAGIC collaboration launched an initiative aimed at enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) among its members. A key effort of this initiative was the distribution of a survey to all MAGIC members, designed to assess the current state of DEI and identify potential challenges or opportunities in these areas. Since then, three surveys have been conducted addressing topics such as demographics, working conditions, recognition, harassment, bullying, and discrimination. I will present the methodology and strategy behind these surveys, along with an overview of their impact within the collaboration and the actions taken as a direct response to the findings. I hope to inspire the audience to start similar initiatives in other collaborations.

Room: Wegelerstr. 10 - Seminar Room 2.019 - 53115 Bonn Why are sexism, homophobia and racism still so prevalent in physics? I start from my personal experience to demonstrate that in fact the personal is political. CERN, the largest physics laboratory in the world, welcomes scientists from 112 nationalities but still about 80% of them are white and 80% are male. I examine why people from so many various groups have been historically excluded from physics and suggest a series of easily applicable measures that could greatly improve diversity in physics. These measures would benefit all scientists, regardless of their gender, race, sexual orientation, physical ability or religion. It has been established that diversity benefits science by increasing the creativity potential, a key ingredient in scientific research.
