Lars Klingbeil findet alle paar Monate Milliarden, um Benzin & Diesel für Vielfahrer zu subventionieren. Aber das #Deutschlandticket lässt er jedes Jahr ungebremst teurer werden. Warum interessiert sich die SPD nicht für die 14,5 Millionen Nutzerinnen? www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/d...

Deutschlandticket wird wohl wieder teurer
Heute soll über den künftigen Preis für das Deutschlandticket entschieden werden. Einem Medienbericht zufolge könnte es 2027 fast vier Euro mehr kosten. Von Verbänden kommt bereits Kritik.

Ab heute ist im Senckenberg Naturmuseum Frankfurt unsere neue Sonderausstellung „Secret Service: Frauen in der Naturforschung“ zu sehen! 👩‍🔬🔬 Im Fokus stehen 11 der vielen Frauen, die Senckenberg über Jahrhunderte geprägt haben – und dafür in ihrer Zeit kaum oder gar keine Anerkennung erhielten.
Blick in die Ausstellung "Secret Service" mit großem Porträt von Aenny Fahr und historischen Fotografien.Besucherinnen betrachten das Porträt von Tilly Edinger in der Ausstellung "Secret Service".Eine Ausstellungsvitrine mit mehreren Schachteln mit Schneckenhäusern und einer Schnecke, die über die Glaswand kriecht in der Ausstellung "Secret Service".Key Visual der Ausstellung "Secret Service.

Come and work with us (the Kokkonuts) as a postdoc! Our research within (theory-evo-eco) is broad; let's say it's implicitly defined by the journal club papers we read. Which is why the application process includes a JC-related task, I hope it'll be a fun one for you! www.evoldir.net/brian/evoldi...
