I am an Environmental Scientist who graduated from
ETH in
April 2006. In my
thesis I investigated the bioavailability of Cd, Zn, and Mn
for algae and their influence on algal growth. I
also investigated the speciation of these metals in freshwaters to relate metal
speciation to uptake and accumulation in freshwater algae. This work was performed at the
Federal Institute for Aquatic Science,
Eawag, in the
group of Laura Sigg.
As of October 2007 I am working as Regulatory Affairs Manager at Celgene International in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. And this is much more exciting as you might think it is!
A more official version of my life can be found in my
Curriculum Vitae,
but there are more things that I consider interesting. For example
travelling :)
