Unser 💍 #OER des Monats beschäftigt sich mit 🩺 medizinischer Fachsprache. In dem interaktiven H5P-Lernmodul werden nach einer kurzen historischen Einführung die Wortbestandteile erläutert und anhand zahlreicher Beispiele veranschaulicht. Ein umfassender Vokabelteil ermöglicht individuelles Lernen. Zur Selbstüberprüfung kann das Quiz bearbeitet werden. 👉

I registered for an event, seemingly organised by one of my favourite professors, who retired a few years ago. I was super excited to get to see him again.

Turns out he shares a name with the *actual* organiser of the event 😅

I'm sure that guy is nice, too. At least now I have an opportunity to find out 🤷‍♀️

We also had tactical workshops on improving first-year student retention, building student confidence, AI tools for accessibility, and unconscious bias training for teaching staff.

Looking forward to bringing these practical ideas back into our courses!

It's only shortly past 8 in the morning, but I need to #vent.
I just overheard a new #tenure track assistant #professor talk about how they got there.
In a nutshell, they haven't left the department since their master studies and stumbled into the tenure process by accident.

I am (kinda) happy for them, but I am also so incredibly fucking jealous!

I have switched not only university but country after every degree/job, so by now I live in country number 5 since starting by studies.
The longest I've been in the same country was during my #PhD plus pandemic and unemployment for over a year.

Especially older #academics don't seem to understand this, because whenever I mention any of this I encounter completely blank stares. Note, I'm in a department where most senior staff is local and celebrating 15-35+ years at the same employer.

I'm in my mid-30, I don't want to move every few years when my temporary contract ends.
I want to be able to plan more than 1-2 years at a time.

I absolutely love doing #research, but I hate so many aspects of #academic culture or what has been normalized over the years for #AcademicLife.
I plan on staying in #academia despite of it.

#Rant over, time to calm down and sip my tea.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a researcher who has just spent an entire week talking about her research and answering critical questions from others, must be in want of a week off so she can rewrite the entire paper. 😓

Last week, I presented the work I did with prof. Kuldeep Meel and prof. Arunabha Sen at IJCAI 2023.

We showed the benefits of reducing a problem to a computationally harder problem (yes, you read that right!), by demonstrating how it allows us to solve much larger problem instances.

It was so much fun to finally share this work with so many fantastic researchers at IJCAI! Thank you to all organisers for making this conference possible. I'm also super grateful to the reviewers who gave us great feedback!

Please find our paper, slides, poster, a short video, and our open source tool, gismo, here: www.annalatour.nl/publication/2023-08-01-Solving-the-Identifying-Code-Set-Problem-with-Grouped-Independent-Support

So I collected my poster and it was so hectic that I held on to it for dear life on my way back to the office.

Very happy that our paper "Solving the Identifying Code Set Problem with Grouped Independent Support" was accepted to IJCAI 2023!

I did this work together with Prof. Kuldeep Meel and from NUS and Prof. Arunabha Sen from ASU. It was a great pleasure to work with them, and I learned a lot from both of them during this project. We have some ideas for further research, so I hope this story is to be continued...

Shout-out and many thanks to @msoos for his last-minute help to fix a bug in the code!

This is my first accepted conference paper that I worked on without my PhD advisor Dr. Siegfried Nijssen Dr. Behrouz Babaki. It felt a little bit weird doing this without them, but I guess that's part of the job.

Many thanks to everyone who contributed to this work in conversation, encouragement, feedback, or just simply making our office a nice place to work at 🙂

If you're planning to attend IJCAI in Macau, and want to meet up, let me know!
