| Please give us a personal quote or a quote of a famous person (e.g. of Albert Einstein) that describes you and your life/work. | |
| Conviction, it turns out, is a luxury of those standing on the sidelines. | |
| Please describe your job in only one sentence and tell us what the most important goal of this work is. | |
| Probing the chemical composition and atmospheric structure of exoplanets of all sizes using high-resolution spectroscopy. The final goal ? Finding life ingredients elsewhere ! | |
| How did you get into this research/work field? | |
| The unknown ! What’s out there ? Why is it like that ?! I want to know ! The study of exoplanets feels like travelling through yet uncharted territories, like modern explorers. | |
| What would be the greatest discovery you would like to see in your life time? | |
| Solving Earth’s energy issues, as well as relevant and consistent clues of life elsewhere, I’d say. | |
| You work for the NCCR PlanetS. What do you think will the NCCR enable you to do you couldn’t do without it? | |
| If we’re explorers, the NCCR is our ship. It provides the network and infrastructure to do great things. | |
