Supervision

Overview:

I am experienced in the supervision of master’s students. During my time as a doctoral student at ETH Zurich, I had the opportunity of co-supervising a total of 13 master’s students, 12 master’s students in Health Sciences and Technology from ETH Zurich and 1 Master’s Student in Physiotherapy from Bern University of Applied Sciences. They completed a total of 9 master’s theses (each equivalent to 6 months full time work) as well as 10 research internships (each equivalent of 3 months full time work). I will shortly start supervising the first PhD student(s) in my role as postdoctoral researcher.
