Is there a way to do this?

Are there any or or doing any current studies on human & retention - specifically on maximum capacities of human brain memory storage & if there's a limit to how much we can store in our brains?

Like, if we build up many new memories, do we reach a point where some past memories are removed from our memory storage or is there no maximum limits to human memory storage?

These are things I wonder about & don't know enough about.

Seeing a former 's presenting her as best thesis (https://github.com/PostElefant/master-thesis) at a prestigious conference makes me proud.
Investing into always pays off. In multiple ways. And supervision is so much more than providing a topic and grading the result. It is ultimately about coaching, encouraging and learning.

What are your experiences and attitudes towards supervision?

I’m #lucky enough to #work in #academia for 15 years now, with a permanent position since 2016. My job is nothing less than my #passion.

Still, today, after one week of #holidays, I’m NOT eager to go back to work. I know many people also feel the same after holidays, because their job is somehow painful. For the very first time to me, I’m like them.

I’m still extremely lucky to be in a group with talented young #researchers, for whom I want the best and do everything I can.
