From the depths of sleep to the echoes of sound and complexities of gender identity—join us for a night of discovery at Pint of Science! Over a pint (or two), our three expert talks will explore the role of sleep in well-being, the science of hearing loss, and how our minds weave memories into personal narratives.
But that’s not all—put your knowledge to the test with our pub quiz, where you can compete for exciting prizes! Expand your mind while you sip your pint.

Sleep and well-being during the transgender transition
Dr. Lieve von Egmond
(Post Doc - University Hospital Tübingen, Department of Psychiatry)
From research on trans* health and the effects of gender-affirming hormone treatment, combined with real conversations with people at different stages of their transition, emerge stories of stigma, challenge, and how hormone treatment affects their physical health and well-being. Sleep, known for its power on both body and mind, may also play an important role here. Is sleep another challenge for this group? And could better sleep act as a kind of shield, helping to navigate both inner changes and external stress?
In this talk, we’ll explore the impact of transitioning on body and mind, and how something as simple as sleep could be a valuable tool to increase well-being in trans* individuals.

Can you hear me?
Ramil Arora
(PhD Student - University Hospital Tübingen, HNO)
As we go through life, our ears can take a bit of a beating, which can affect our hearing over time. My project is all about exploring ways to protect our inner ears from these damages at molecular levels and see if we can develop a solution to help prevent hearing loss.
