Switzerland is joining Horizon Europe!

We are uniting two research powerhouses.

For cutting-edge innovation that will boost our energy security, digital transformation, health and so much more.

Today is a good day for science, and for our EU-Switzerland partnership.

Thinking of a PhD? Listen to one of our old episodes and hear from students at the University of Edinburgh, on your preferred podcast platform.

A laser shines through 4 vials each filled with a solution containing a different fluorophore. the laser beam excites the fluorophores and creates a colorful glow in the vials. each glow has a different color: Yellow, orange and two shades of pink.

Yesterday was the JOM, a special day in Swiss schools where students can spend a day with an adult at work to discover a job.
I hosted our neighbors 10 yo girl in the lab to show her the job/life of a chemist.
The good old trick of fluorophores and a laser beam never gets old, even for me 😊

Great fun yesterday presenting my PhD research at the annual symposium of our @wellcometrust.bsky.social PhD programme! It’s so fantastic to see the diversity and ingenuity of projects here at @edinburghuni.bsky.social.

IMO: all scientific researchers, their institutes/universities , their funding agencies, academic societies, and research publishers/journals should stop using Xitter. @Musk has made it toxic cesspit - we should not support it.
