The Lise Meitner Lectures (LML)[1] are a series of public lectures in honour of Lise Meitner. The lectures are organized jointly by the German Physical Society and the Austrian Physical Society, with the intention to showcase outstanding female scientists in physics or related fields. The annual lecture series was launched in 2008, when Lise Meitner's birthday celebrated its 130th anniversary. In October 2008, the Lise Meitner Lecture was held in Vienna and Berlin with an accompanying exhibition.[2] The annual lecture series[3] not only aims at increasing the visibility of successful female researchers, but also at encouraging girls and young women towards careers in physics.
