🥳 We celebrated a milestone in both life and science! With Ulf-Dietrich Reips we marked 30 years of pioneering Internet-based experimentation and his 60th birthday with a symposium on September 11, 2024, at the University of Konstanz in its Data Theatre (ZT 1204).
💬 This special event featured insightful talks by distinguished researchers Michael Birnbaum (California State University Fullerton), Tom Buchanan (University of Westminster, London), Mario Callegaro (Google Research), and Jochen Musch (Unversity of Düsseldorf) and many video messages from around the world. Additionally, the international as well as local guests got to know a bit more of the culture of Konstanz in a tour around its city hall in the old town.
The iScience team would like to thank everyone who attended, sent greetings, photos or videos and all in all made this day very special to all of us. We hope to have built the basis for many fruitful future collaborations for the next 30 years of web-based experimenting! ✨

✨ Our team-leader, Prof. Dr. Reips, co-organized an exciting workshop about semantic, numerical and embodied cognition in Tübingen. Additionally, Dr. Shevchenko and Annika Tave Overlander, two members of the iScience team, presented their projects! 🚀 🗨 The workshop offered an excellent opportunity to discuss various topics in the fields of Psychology, Linguistics and Cognitive Science.
Next to amazing presentations and insightful discussions, the participants were also able to explore the beautiful town of Tübingen. On several city tours lead by local workshop participants, many titbits of interesting information was exchanged. Did you know that the motto of Uni Tübingen, “Attempto!” has to do with its logo, a palm tree? 🌴 Apparently the founder of the university attempted to plant a palm tree in Tübingen, even though his advisers were sure it would not grow – only to discover that it did!
