Wir gratulieren ihr herzlichen zu diesem grossen Erfolg und hoffen sie bald, im Rahmen unseres Programmes, zu ihren Erfahrungen und Eindrücken befragen zu dürfen. Vielleicht ja schon bei unserem nächsten Besuch der nächsten Wintersession, während im Berner Bundeshaus (siehe Science and Policy workshop: Building Political Support).
Continue reading Wissenschafliches Politikstipendium für Selma Cadot – Herzlichen GlückwunschDid you already think about the impact you could have in your research field on policy-making and you want to learn how to achieve this? Are you enthusiastic to learn about new tools and competencies for successful engagement and communication at the science and policy interface? If yes, join the PhD Program in Science and Policy of ETH Zurich, University of Zurich and University of Basel.
For October 6 (1-2 pm, online) we cordially invite PhD students (ETHZ (incl ETH Domain, UZH, Uni Basel), PhD candidates, PhD supervisors and science and policy enthusiasts getting to know our team, our vision, the PhD program and our alumni.
We are looking forward to talk to you and your questions.
For getting the online access, please register here.
If you have questions about the event, please contact Dr. Luisa Last

In multi-energy systems (MES), different energy carriers such as electricity, heat, and gas interact with each other. When optimally designed and operated, MES can outperform energy systems without sector coupling in terms of economic, environmental, and social sustainability. MES can thus contribute to the transition towards affordable, low-carbon and secure energy.

Navigating the complexities of bioenergy, its potential for carbon neutrality, and its conflicts with land, food, and feed resources is a pressing issue. What if we could circumvent these issues and focus solely on land-free bioenergy, similar to growing mushrooms on waste coffee grounds for a delicious dish? Waste and byproducts can generate valuable bioenergy, playing strategic roles in a future sustainable energy system.
The ETH Energy Blog post of RESPONSE fellow Fei Wu presents key findings from our latest research papers, providing insights into the strategic applications of land-free bioenergy and its policy implications. Join us in exploring the ‘why,’ ‘what’, and ‘how’ of deploying land-free bioenergy effectively in the quest for carbon neutrality.

Researchers in Switzerland often do not have a clear answer to this question. A new publication by the Swiss Young Academy provides practical tips, insights and background information on the legislative process. This orientation guide is intended to enable (young) scientists to successfully contribute their knowledge to parliamentary deliberations.
Continue reading Who gets heard? Scientific experts at the ParliamentOn October 4, 2023, Dr. Benedikt Knüsel will share his experiences on how can you prepare for a career at the interface between science and policy.
In the Science and Policy Talk series professionals working in different roles at the interface between science and policy explain how they contribute to linking science and policy and give us insights in their career pathway. This talk series is an offer as part of the PhD program in Science and Policy.
Dr. Benedikt Knüsel is Head of Science-Policy Interface in the Office of Knowledge Transfer and Corporate Relations at ETH Zurich. The Science-Policy Interface is the central hub at ETH that supports researchers who wish to engage in a dialogue with policymakers and was created in 2022.
