Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland
As far back as I can remember, I've always had this curiosity that drives me to understand what surrounds me, instinctively introducing me to natural sciences. I had first chosen this field at high school, where I graduated with a major in biology and chemistry. Then, my obvious attraction, as well as my ease with scientific subjects, led me to enrol in the biology section at the University of Geneva, which has become my favorite field. Through my studies, I had the privilege of working in excellent laboratories, which in addition to teaching me enormously, confirmed my fondness for this discipline. Among the many branches of biology, the fascinating world of imaging is the one I wish to pursue my career in. Today, what I enjoy most of all is interdisciplinary research involving microscopy, from system customisation to sample preparation, imaging, image processing and data analysis.
