The latest issue of SNI INSight – our animated e-magazine – is now online. This issue offers a detailed look at the latest research and activities at the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI).

The focus is on Raphael Pauli’s outstanding master’s thesis, for which he is receiving the award for the best master’s thesis. We take a look at the new Nano-Argovia projects, which demonstrate how collaboration with industrial partners delivers nanoscientific solutions to applied challenges.

We also look back at the results of two Interreg projects on sustainable viticulture in the Upper Rhine region, to which the Nano Imaging Lab contributed. 

Furthermore, we celebrate the successful dissertations of doctoral students from the SNI PhD School and, in a guest article, introduce a new event format tailored specifically for nanoscience students that draws on our interdisciplinary network and highlights career paths.

The issue is rounded out by a comprehensive review of the most important news and milestones from the past six months at the SNI.
