![]() In 2017, research projects led by Marco Hutter resulted in the foundation of ANYmal and the ANYmal Research Initiative, one of the most important cooperation networks in the area of legged robotic systems. He devises novel concepts of serial elastic actuation for legged robots. Marco Hutter is head of the Robotic Systems Lab and works on the development of intelligent robotic systems for use in challenging environments. Professor Marco Hutter (*1985), currently Tenure Track Assistant Professor at ETH Zurich, as Associate Professor of Robotic Systems in the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering. By appointing Sarah Zerbes as a full professor, the Department of Mathematics is gaining one of the world's leading number theorists, who will strengthen this important area of mathematics. Sarah Zerbes has won numerous awards, including an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2015. These new tools have enabled her to make radical advances in relation to the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, which is one of the most famous and enigmatic mathematical problems yet to be solved. She has recently developed new methods of constructing Euler systems. Sarah Zerbes' field of research is number theory, particularly arithmetic geometry. Professor Sarah Zerbes (*1978), currently Full Professor at University College London, United Kingdom, as Full Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics. Interactions and synergies will also be created with colleagues at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and in the health sciences and chemistry. The appointment of Michal Wieczorek is an ideal opportunity for the Department of Biology to strengthen intradepartmental links between the research areas of biochemistry, cell biology, structural biology and biophysics. Disruptions in cytoskeletal processes can be a cause of illness, and a number of cancer treatments aim to eliminate them. Michal Wieczorek's research focuses on the study of the cytoskeleton. His appointment significantly improves the links between the Department's research programmes in IT security and machine learning.ĭr Michal Wieczorek (*1987), currently Postdoctoral Fellow at Rockefeller University in New York, USA, as Assistant Professor of Integrative Approaches in Structural Biology in the Department of Biology. Florian Tramèr has also been working on the privacy and security of smart contracts and cryptocurrencies. His work on visual ad blockers caught the attention of the industry and influenced Adblock Plus, a leading ad blocking application with millions of users. He is completing a doctoral thesis about attacks on machine learning systems. Florian Tramèr conducts research at the interface of privacy, security and machine learning. ![]() It will also create important synergies with colleagues at the Center for Energy Policy and Economics and the Energy Science Center.įlorian Tramèr (*1991), currently a doctoral student at Stanford University, USA, as Tenure Track Assistant Professor of Computer Science in the Department of Computer Science. The appointment of Lint Barrage boosts the Department's competences and research activities in energy economics and policy. ![]() She has a particular interest in the effects of energy and climate policy on economic development. ![]() Lint Barrage's research focuses on the macroeconomic and social consequences of ecological developments and environmental policy decisions. Professor Lint Barrage (*1985), currently Assistant Professor at the University of California, USA, as Associate Professor of Energy and Climate Economics in the Department of Management, Technology and Economics. In the last 12 months, the ETH Board has made a total of 23 new appointments for women and 30 for men the proportion of women among these new appointments amounts to 43%. It also took note of the resignations of seven professors and thanked them for their services. Board of the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technologyīerne/Zurich, - At its meeting of 22/23 September 2021 and upon application of the President of ETH Zurich, Professor Joël Mesot, and the President of EPFL, Professor Martin Vetterli, the ETH Board appointed a total of 14 women and 8 men as professors and awarded the title of professor to one individual. ![]()
