Prof. Dr. Maria Rentetzi from the Chair of Science, Technology and Gender Studies at FAU continues with the annual lecture. She will explain how radium, a scientific object, became an easily accessible and widely used commodity of every day live. This story goes far beyond safety and health issues, including the exploitation of men and women alike.

The Emmy Noether Lecture 2023 will take place on the 15th of June 2023 at 6 pm in the Senatssaal in the Kollegienhaus, KH 1.011 (Universitätsstraße 15, 91054).
