I am currently a PhD student at the University of Zurich, and part of the PhD Excellence Program of the Digital Society Initiative.

PhD Excellence Program

I was accepted to the PhD Excellence Program 2022-2024 organised by the Digital Society Initiative (DSI) at the University of Zurich.

The PhD Excellence Program is an interdisciplinary program that brings together PhD students from several disciplines, who at the same time are involved with the topic of digitalization. This fosters competencies in the context of digitalization on the levels of knowledge, critical reflection, skills and abilities.
