🙋🏻‍♀️It is so good to be back to field work! Philaenus spumarius nymphs started to emerge in Switzerland, I've already spotted them in Ticino and Zürich 😊

On the top of this week's finding... Agroscope colleagues gave me a Philaenus spumarius T-shirt for my 30th birthday! 😂💚 (matching with my tattoo now)
I'm ready, when is the next conference happening? 🙋🏻‍♀️

👩‍🔬✨ Happy #WomenInScience Day!

Today we celebrate women in science and their journeys.

From animal health to biomedical engineering, their paths prove that passion knows no gender

Is there a moment as a child that inspired you to become what you are today?
