About Me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Inter- and Transdisciplinary Research Group (ITD) at Eawag, where my focus lies on inter- and transdisciplinary integration, with a particular emphasis on the role of Early Career Researchers (ECRs). Currently, I am developing a project within the Blue-Green Biodiversity Initiative, analyzing how inter- and transdisciplinary approaches are planned, implemented, and practiced in a cross-institutional program. My research specifically addresses the needs of ECRs in inter- and transdisciplinary contexts, the challenges they face, and how targeted support through coaching and mentoring can help overcome these barriers.

I hold a PhD in Social Anthropology from the University of Bern, where my research explored the practices of evolutionary biology fieldwork. Through an ethnographic lens, I examined the sensory and embodied practices of evolutionary biologists, aiming to offer a fresh perspective on scientific knowledge production.

In addition to my research, I am a lecturer at the Zurich University of the Arts. Leveraging my background as a trained designer, I promote collaboration between arts and sciences and teach courses in Science and Technology Studies as well as ethnography.

Projects

The project EXPLORE focuses on understanding how inter- and transdisciplinary integration occurs at the interface of research, policy, and practice, using the BGB Initiative as an empirical case study.

EXPLORE - Integration at the interface between science, policy and practice

Das Projekt EXPLORE forscht, wie inter- und transdisziplinäre Integration an der Schnittstelle von Forschung, Politik und Praxis stattfindet, wobei die BGB-Initiative als empirische Fallstudie dient.
