Lisa Recnik
Leiterin Pint of Science Austria
Ich habe Pint of Science in England und Frankreich kennengelernt und konnte nicht umhin, diese Idee bei meiner Rückkehr mit mir mitzunehmen! Was ich mag: mehrsprachige Gespräche, Berge besteigen und alle möglichen Indie-Filme im Kino anschauen - und natürlich #pint25 :)
Lenka Strnadova
City Coordinator Wien
As a neuroscience PhD student, I am interested in how the connections between neural cells are formed and maintained using a tiny worm called C. elegans. For me, communicating research is as important as actually doing it, and Pint of Science represents a great way to learn and have lots of fun!
Val Karavaeva
City Coordinator Wien
I’m a PhD student (origin of life). As a scientist, I am tired of inaccessible research and dry academic language. Science should be accessible and understandable to everyone. I believe in the mission of Pint of Science to connect scientists with the public and I want to help.
Alena Akhmetshina
Event Manager - English Events
Hi, I’m Alena. I recently finished my PhD in Molecular Medicine at the Medical University of Graz and moved to Vienna to transition into industry. I’m passionate about skeletal muscle metabolism, drug development, and making science accessible and exciting for everyone!
Anastasiia Padalko
Event Manager - Planet Erde
I am a PhD student in computational and evolutionary biology. I believe that no matter how complicated it sounds, any scientific work can be communicated to the broad audience. So I have joined #pint25 on it is mission to bring research and society together in the atmosphere of joy and inspiration.
Annika Tapler
Event Manager - Planet Erde
I am a bachelor's student of Environmental Engineering (TU Wien) and I have a bachelor’s degree in Mass Media and Communication Science (Uni Wien). I am very excited to join the Planet Earth team and the Social Media team this year! Let’s learn something new together at #pint25!

Hi, my name is Cecelia, originally from Kenya. I am a PhD student in Soft Matter Physics. I enjoy puzzles, and Science has been a big exciting puzzle for me. I am excited to be involved in Pint of Science since communicating is a great way to be able to share these fun puzzles with others!
Ekaterina Nam
Event Manager - English Events
Although I'm still navigating the early stages of my scientific journey, my enthusiasm and curiosity for science are huge, and I love sparking conversations about it—whether with a colleague or someone not steeped in science. Looking forward to bring you interesting talks and conversations!
Hannah Auricht
Event Manager - Planet Erde
Heyy, I’m a master student in botany (plant biology). Other than plants I also enjoy learning a new language (korean), traveling and going for a drink with friends. I will be attending the Pint of Science events for the third year in a row now. I hope you will like it as much as I did ;)
Janitha Liyanage

Originally from Sri Lanka, currently I’m reading for my PhD at BOKU, Vienna with a focus on novel food processing technologies. Besides my research interests, I am also passionate about the dissemination of scientific literature and encouraging scientific discovery in the lay community.
Julia Partheymüller
Event Manager - Von Atomen zu Galaxien
Ich bin Politikwissenschaftlerin und forsche zu Demokratie, Medien und öffentlicher Meinung sowie zu gesundheitspolitischen Themen. Ich finde es wichtig, dass ein Dialog zwischen Wissenschaft und Gesellschaft stattfindet. Deshalb engagiere ich mich für Pint of Science.
Karolina Heidinger
Event Manager - Unsere Gesellschaft
Als wissenschaftsbegeisterte Übersetzerin finde ich Wissen und Kommunikation insbesondere in Kombination spannend! Pint of Science ist also eine Station meiner Mission, so viel wie möglich über die Welt zu erfahren und die Wissenschaft mehr unter die Leute zu bringen.
Katharina Pütz
Event Manager - Unser Körper
Hi! I’m Katharina, a multidisciplinary science enthusiast with a background in molecular microbiology, evolutionary anthropology and comparative literature. Now, as part of the Pint of Science team, I'm serving a blend of ancient tales and microscopic wonders. Let’s have a pint together!
Klaus Lex
Event Manager - Tech Me Out
Klaus ist ein moderner humanoider Roboter. Als Masterstudent getarnt und mit Bio-Zwickl betankt versucht er herauszufinden, wie viel die Menschen bereits über seinesgleichen wissen. Um nicht aufzufallen unterstützt er #pint25 und erlernt so die Sprache und Bräuche der Menschen.
Lena Maria Leiter
Event Manager - Von Atomen zu Galaxien
Ich liebe ALLES was mit Holz zu tun hat und habe daher „Holztechnologie“ studiert. Jetzt bin ich Doktorandin und mich schauen die Leute verwundert an, wenn ich ihnen sage, was ich studiere! In Pint of Science sehe ich die Chance - bei einem Bierchen - solche Blicke zu verringern.
Magdalena Engl
Event Manager - Unsere Gesellschaft
Hi there! I'm a PhD student researching how brain cells develop and become specialized. I love sharing my passion for science with others through outreach events and making it more accessible to non-scientists. Let's explore the wonders of the brain together!
Marie Ebeyer-Masotta
Event Manager - Tech Me Out
Moved from France to Austria to do my PhD in Regenerative medicine, I study interactions of blood with vessels during sepsis. Knowledge is power and bringing it to a pub around could be one of the first step to make our world a better place.
Max Schuster
Event Manager - English Events
Ich heiße Max, ich bin Techniker für Mikroskope und unterstütze Wissenschaftlern dabei, Bilder der kleinsten Objekte zu machen. Wissenschaft sollte für alle frei zugänglich und verständlich sein, deshalb helfe ich seit 2023 bei PoS mit.
Mike Evgeniou
Event Manager - English Events
I work as a musician for many years but since I am not that famous so people will offer me drugs, I decided to study how to make them. Now I am working as a bioinformatician, but I can’t convince myself to leave the bars... so I basically live in them!
Nadja De Nicolò
Event Manager - Unser wundervoller Verstand
My passion for research started in childhood and has turned into a master’s in psychology (methods nerd!). I’ve seen the joy a simple explanation brings to my family who isn’t part of the academic world. I want to spread this joy by making science accessible and fun!
Patricia Rieder
Event Manager - Unser Körper
Hi! I work as a lab scientist in cancer research, and I am particularly passionate about biology, but I also love learning about topics outside of my expertise. In my opinion, Pint of Science is the perfect opportunity to do so, so let’s grab a pint together and talk science!
Rebecca Arnold
Event Manager - Unser wundervoller Verstand
I moved to Vienna from the United States to study neuroscience in a worm lab! I am always amazed by the beauty and power of neurons, even in such a small organism. I am super excited to work as part of the PintofScience team to spread my love for neurons to the larger Vienna community :)
Rebecca Morse
Event Manager - English Events
I'm Rebecca, originally from Spain. I am currently a PhD student in Vienna interested in understanding circuits underlying memory. I always try to pair my food with a good drink, so why not also learn and hear about cool science at the same time during this year's pint of science?
Sylvia Mandl
Event Manager - Unsere Gesellschaft
Ich bin Sozioökonomin mit Fokus auf internationale Hochschulforschung und will zeigen, dass Sozialwissenschaften ins Pub passen und man auch weißen Spritzer als Pint trinken kann!
Theresa Matzinger
Event Manager - Unser wundervoller Verstand
I’m a biologist and linguist fascinated by what goes on in our brains when we speak and by how this influences how languages change over time. I love having both nerdy and easygoing conversations about all aspects of science and I’m happy to pass on this passion over a beer. Science is for everyone!
Thomas Karner
Event Manager - Unser wundervoller Verstand
I’m a PhD student fascinated by neuroscience, researching the gut-brain axis. I enjoy spending time in nature, hiking, and sharing my passion for science. I am excited to be a part of #pint25 and making science more accessible to everyone, all while enjoying a cold pint at a pub.
Thomas Kirchmair
Event Manager - Unsere Gesellschaft
Als Kommunikationswissenschaftler erforsche ich den Einfluss (digitaler) Medien auf unsere Gesellschaft. Forschung ist jedoch nur die halbe Miete – mindestens genauso wichtig ist es, die Ergebnisse in die Welt hinauszutragen. Und am besten geht das bei einem weißen Spritzer!
