We're raising a toast to Swiss science — past and present.
These gems from a 1911 hydrobiology course are part fieldwork, part alpine postcard. Beer after sampling? Timeless. Fieldwork in a suit? Thankfully, not.

The library teams had a great time with the #biketowork #challenge2025! Altogether, we cycled more than 4,300km - roughly the distance from Zürich to Dakar, Senegal. Although the challenge is over - we keep on rolling!
For the final week, we embraced the theme: "fake it till you make it" - enjoy!
