OeAI Running Group  
Fellow sports! Since the summer of 2022, an OeAI running group has been meeting more or less regularly for after-work runs. Especially in winter, when it's cold, dark and the notorious Viennese wind blows, experience has shown that it's easier to get together to do sports. When the temperatures are warm, a weekly casual after-work run with colleagues along the Danube Canal, the Ring or on the Prater Hauptallee is a real pleasure. A 5 km loop at a comfortable pace that can be run by everyone has proven to be a good idea. When many runners come together, groups form by themselves, depending on individual fitness. Our motto is always: »No one is left behind«. Whether it's a morning run, a night run, a fit for brain run – if you want to do some sport after work and do something for your health, you've come to the right place. We organise and coordinate via MS teams and Termino. If you have time, want to do something and are in the mood, simply enter your name in the calendar and you can meet up for an after-work run with as few as two or three participants. If you are interested in joining this group, please write to benjamin.frerix(at)oeaw.ac.at   Next runs 2023 (Last update: 5.7.2023) Sept 19: The 17th Vienna Night Run will take place on Tuesday, 19 September 2023. We would be happy if we – like last year – would start together as the OeAI team. In a relaxed atmosphere, the focus is on sporting togetherness and not on chasing best times. The course is a 5 km loop around the ring. After the group start, running groups form by themselves. No one runs alone. This year, the start and finish areas will be in front of the city hall, where there will be plenty of opportunities for refreshments and toasts after the run. The start fee for company registration would initially be paid in advance, but we are asking the OeAW works council for a refund afterwards. → If you are enthusiastic about a night run with thousands of runners and a great running T-shirt, please register with the OeAI running group by 1 September 2023. Oct 21: On 21 October 2023, the »Fit for brain run 2023« will take place on the Prater Hauptallee, where we will run for a good cause. The entry fee of 30 € will be donated to the Austrian Stroke Aid. Two distances of 5 and 10 km are offered. Registration by email is requested by 17 October. Oct 21: For the Thessaloniki Night Run on 21 October 2023, we are also looking for runners for the half marathon distance. Contact Benjamin Frerix

Copper Age grave: male chief was actually a woman  
The most prominent person of the Iberian Copper Age was not a man, as previously assumed, but a woman. In cooperation with the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the University of Vienna archaeologists in Spain have now discovered this astonishing result by means of tooth enamel analyses. It indicates that even in the earliest period of human history, leadership positions were occupied by women.

Overview Events in which the OeAI is involved as organiser or co-organiser are coordinated by the unit »Public Relations & Events«. There are three types of OeAI events: 1. of a research group (to be assigned to a RG in terms of content) 2. of a department (e.g. OeAI lecture of a department, departmental workshops etc.) 3. of the entire institute: inter-departmental events (e.g. big conferences, Christmas party, in-house colloquium) or public events (e.g. Lange Nacht der Forschung) Those events that can be assigned to an research group or department are organised by the person in charge of events at the department  in cooperation with the responsible researcher.  All other events are assigned to the overall institute and are organised by the person responsible for overall institute events.
