The balancing act between family and paid work as a scientist is often not easy. Dr. Katharina Bastl from the Pollenservice Vienna shares her very personal experiences as a mother of three children and a scientist.

Family planning for women is often pushed back in research. Fixed-term contracts and positions of power in the science system are often the main reasons for this. In the episode „Compatibility of family and science“ in the „Die Wissen Schafft“ podcast, Katharina Bastl explains how she continued in science during maternity leave, how she and her husband set up the Vienna Pollen Service and what tips she would like to give to other colleagues.

Available at Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other podcast platforms.
