  • Dr.-Ing. Bartlett Warren-Kretzschmar, Hanover, was born in New York and studied Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning at Cornell University. She has been teaching courses in landscape architecture and environmental planning at both American and German universities for the past forty years. At the Leibniz University in Hanover, she has taught and researched for 30 years. Moreover, she was a guest professor in the international Master of Landscape Architecture programme at the Anhalt University of Applied Sciences in Bernburg and professor in the Bioregional Planning Programme at Utah State University, where she also offered courses in research skills and scientific writing, as well as communication and rhetoric.

Conference
  • Start: Jul 5, 2021
  • End: Jul 8, 2021
The Managing Director and the Equal Opportunity Officers are inviting everyone to the presentation of the Gender Equality Plan (GEP) 2021-2023. The information session (in English & German) will include the objectives and measures of the plan and give some tips regarding what is on offer from the institute and MPS to employees of any gender. Everyone is welcome to join and benefit from the opportunities offered and ask questions! [more]

IMPRS NeuroCom Lecture Series "EEG and MEG" (Basic Course)

IMPRS Lecture Series
The course aims to bring participants up to date with the standard statutes of research integrity (Singapore Statement, DFG Codex, Guidelines of the Hochschulrektorenkonferenz) as well as local regulations at place. During the workshops and lectures, participants will be engaged in discussions, group work, role play and case studies. [more]

R-Course (Advanced level)

IMPRS NeuroCom
This 3-day hands-on workshop will build on the previous R workshop and will largely deal with statistics. After starting with a brief repetition of the basics (in order to bring everyone up to speed), we will lay the foundation for reproducible analyses with RStudio by looking at how to organize code across multiple projects, how to have both code and explanatory text in one file, and how to use version control (if everyone is familiar with git/github). We will then spend some time on creating publication-ready graphics with ggplot2 and start with the basic building blocks of statistical inference, also learning how to simulate data in a very simple way. The largest part of the workshop will then tackle the following topics: i) assumptions of parametric tests, ii) correlation, iii) regression, iv) comparing means, v) bootstrapping, and vi) exploratory data analysis; for each topic we will move from the theory and the most basic implementation to more complex approaches.

This 3-day hands-on workshop will give a thorough introduction to R, without assuming any prior knowledge of programming (in R or any other language). We will start with a general overview of R, look at the various ways of how to get help in R and will use it as a simple pocket calculator, introducing variables along the way. We will then start writing little scripts and dealing with different data types in R, such as matrices, arrays, lists, data frames, etc. Next, we will learn how to use control flow statements and how to expand our basic R capabilities by making use of packages (and learn about their management). We will then spend quite some time on learning how to write and debug functions (with an excursion into the apply family). Finally, some time will be spent on R’s basic plotting capabilities and basic statistical tools. [more]

This 3-day hands-on workshop will build on the Matlab I workshop and will cover a wide variety of intermediate/advanced topics. After starting with a brief repetition of the basics (in order to bring everyone up to speed), we will spend a large amount of time on how to write (and debug) more complex pieces of code, using Matlab functions. We will also cover many topics that can be helpful during research projects, such as i) integrating Matlab with other tools (Bash, R, Python), ii) data visualization, iii) using regular expressions for filtering text, iv) using different data types, and - if time permits - v) graphical user interfaces. Finally, we will spend a lot of time on data processing and analysis. [more]

Prof. Dr. Michael Tomasello | Humans as Ultra-Social Animals

Vorlesung
The Department of Developmental and Comparative Psychology of the Max Planck Insitute for Evolutionary Anthropology investigates cognitive and social-cognitive processes in humans and their nearest primate relatives. Of special interest are the uniquely human cognitive, social-cognitive, and symbolic processes involved in cultural learning and creation. The department has three main areas of research: the Ontogeny of Human Social Cognition, the Acquisition of Language, and Primate Cognition. [more]
