If you are a woman working in the field of physics in Germany or a German woman working in physics abroad and would like to showcase your work through the "Physikerin der Woche" initiative, then don't hesitate to get in touch with Dr. Ulrike Boehm at . This opportunity is open to women in physics at all career stages, whether they are from academia or industry. Moreover, you are also welcome to recommend suitable candidates for the initiative.

Articles and posters about the initiative are available in the April 2018 and 2021 / 2022 / 2023 issues of the Physik-Journal. Feel free to print and display these posters at your institution. For past participants, see resources from: 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 und 2025.

Prof. Dr. Annabelle Bohrdt (Munich) - Kalenderwoche 1

Annabelle is a theoretical physicist at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich whose work focuses on understanding strongly interacting quantum many-body systems, such as electrons in solids or ultracold atoms in optical lattices.

She uses a combination of state-of-the-art numerical methods, intuitive physical models, close collaboration with quantum simulation experiments, and machine-learning techniques to extract insights from complex quantum data. Among her contributions are using “snapshots” of quantum states to identify hidden patterns (for example, in the Hubbard model) and developing interpretable neural-network architectures to classify and understand many-body quantum states. Her work bridges the gap between abstract theoretical models, highly controllable experimental platforms, and quantum materials, with the aim of revealing how complex quantum matter behaves in real systems.
