I started my internship at Bayer AG on July 1, 2024, and have met many nice and helpful people. I spent two days in the laboratory, one day with the fire department, and one day in production.

I visited the Byron Bar at the Bayer Pharmaceuticals Headquarters in Berlin during the winter 2023/2024. We designed the Bar for project work, workshops, presentations, meetings, events. Here you can present your visions and connect with others. It is a place to work, network and inspire. Join us to catch new ideas and inspirations!

Multiple Personality Day raises awareness about Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). It aims to educate and debunk myths surrounding DID, a condition stemming from severe trauma, often in childhood, leading to two or more distinct identities or personality states within an individual. DID has been recognized for decades. The condition is rare, 1%-3% of the population, with maybe a higher prevalence in females. People with DID often have a remarkably high tolerance for pain and may not notice injuries in some of their alternate identities. Treatment primarily involves psychotherapy, focusing on integrating the various identities into one. Approaches include cognitive-behavioral therapy and art therapy, among others. Medications may target associated symptoms like anxiety or depression. Noteworthy is the increased awareness from the "Sybil" story in the 1970s, showcasing a woman with 16 personalities, highlighting DID's complex nature and the potential for recovery with appropriate support and treatment. Controversy is very high. From Wikipedia: (Many)... believe DID is caused by traumatic stresses forcing the mind to split into multiple identities, each with a separate set of memories, (others) that the symptoms of DID are produced artificially by certain psychotherapeutic practices or patients playing a role... Ongoing research and clinical practice continue to refine our understanding and care for those affected. Wiki: https://bit.ly/3TqsswS Art&Text🫶ChatGPT.

International Women's Day (IWD), celebrated on March 8th annually, marks a global observance to honor women's achievements and advocate for gender equality. The day traces its origins to the early 20th century, catalyzed by women's labor movements in North America and Europe. The first National Woman's Day was observed in the US on February 28, 1909, inspired by the Socialist Party of America. In 1910, Clara Zetkin, a German activist, proposed the idea of an international day at the International Socialist Women's Conference, leading to the first IWD in 1911, celebrated in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland. A core motive for IWD's inception was advocating for women's suffrage rights. The IWD gained recognition from the United Nations in 1977, which officially invited member states to proclaim March 8 as the UN Day for women's rights and world peace to highlight issues such as gender inequality, violence against women, and the need for gender parity in various sectors. In some countries, IWD is an official holiday, and men honor the women in their lives with flowers and small gifts. While there have been advancements in women's participation in politics and the workforce, significant gaps remain. IWD has mobilized movements, influenced policies, and brought attention to women's rights, showing the power of collective action in driving social change. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Women%27s_Day Art&Text🫶ChatGPT.

World Obesity Day, observed on March 4th, is dedicated to promoting practical solutions to end the global obesity crisis. Obesity, a complex health condition characterized by excessive body fat, is a major risk factor for various diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and certain cancers. Historically, obesity was mostly seen as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. Many of the Venus figurines, made 20,000+ years ago, are corpulent ladies and thought to symbolize fertility, health, and abundance, maybe idealizing body size in times where food scarcity was a constant threat. Ancient medical texts saw it as a health risk, but only in the 20th century research highlighted it as a medical condition. It's caused by a combination of genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors. Poor diet, lack of physical activity, and sedentary lifestyles are key contributors. Obesity affects all age groups and socioeconomic classes, over 10% of the population. However, prevalence rates vary significantly across different regions and populations. In recent years, developing countries have witnessed a rapid rise in obesity rates, a shift attributed to urbanization and changes in lifestyle and dietary habits. Obesity's toll on health, life quality, and economy is huge. World Obesity Day calls for united efforts for change, advocating for healthy lifestyles, supportive policies, and research to combat this challenge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obesity Art&Text🫶ChatGPT.
