from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heidi Reinholz (* 1959 in Dresden as Heidi Wegener ) is a German physicist and university professor.

Family and studies

Heidi Reinholz is married to a physicist and has four sons. Heidi Reinholz studied theoretical physics at the University of Rostock . In 1983 she did a research stay of three months at the Bogoliubov Laboratory of the Nuclear Research Center Dubna / Russia . 1989 doctorate it at the University of Rostock Dr. rer. nat. and then worked there until 1994 as a research assistant. In 1992/93 Reinholz did a postdoc at the University of Oxford , UK.

Research and Teaching

Since 1997 she has researched and taught at the University of Western Australia , where she studied part-time teaching from 1998 to 2000. She is currently Adjunct Senior Lecturere at UWAS . Reinholz submitted her habilitation in theoretical physics to the University of Rostock in 2005. Since 2003 she was a research assistant at the Institute for Physics and later also head of the subject didactics for physics. Reinholz has been a professor at the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the JKU Linz since 2009 . She continues to teach at the University of Rostock, where she heads the working group for physics didactics. Reinholz holds the position of equal opportunities officer of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Rostock. At the University of Rostock, 41 of the 262 professorships are held by women. Reinholz would like women to be able to reconcile children and careers more often: "I think it is compatible. Everyone has to see for themselves how it is consistent. It is important to find a good balance between private life and work."
