Short summary
Short summary
Polar research is an interdisciplinary and multi-faceted field of research. Its diversity ranges from history to geology and geophysics to social sciences and education. This article provides insights into the different areas of German polar research. This was made possible by a seminar series, POLARSTUNDE, established in the summer of 2020 and organized by the German Society of Polar Research and the German National Committee of the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS Germany).

Short summary
The German National Committee (APECS Germany) of the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) is a network of polar researchers organising activities at the national level in Germany. In our inaugural dedicated pages in Polarforschung, we interview two former APECS Germany chairs to discuss their careers in polar research, their involvement with APECS, and their perspectives on the future of their fields.
