What happened to...? Fanny G.

Receiving the Germany Scholarship was and is a great honor. It also encouraged me to get actively involved at Zurich University to which I moved for my doctoral thesis. I represent the interests of young researchers on many levels of the university and promote equal opportunity and diversity.

There are several aspects regarding the way in which research is carried out these days, which I would like to improve, e.g. the involvement of society. The fact that my commitment in Switzerland was honored by being elected to the Swiss Young Academy, this year, fills me with gratitude and at the same time, this is a mission for the future. I am sending a big Merci to Heidelberg from the small lake next to our village in Switzerland!
