Hello, I am Lena, a biologist from the Leibnitz Institute of Baltic Sea Research in Warnemüende. (My full name is Barbara Lena Fassnacht). So far, my contribution to the WebLab project is to take care of parts of the project management like organizing the science camp 2010 and reporting every half year to monitor the project's progress. Then there are lots of tasks left and right like translating texts or designing the testing concept for the WebLab modules.

My scientific background involved university studies in Freiburg in Southern Germany and in Zurich at the EAWAG in Duebendorf, where I worked on alpine fresh-water and glacial streams until I took my parential leave. I've been living in Rostock since 2001 and feel quite happy here. Next to my part-time work I am continuing university studies to become a teacher in biology and English.
