Description: Every day and perhaps even every hour, there?s a scientist somewhere in the world making the next scientific breakthrough. Indeed, scientific development cannot take place in a vacuum. Rather it thrives in an environment that offers inspiration and the necessary framework. One such place is ETH Zurich. It has flourished in this role over the course of its more than 150-year history.
