The Swiss Young Academy currently numbers 39 talented scientists and academics with broad interests from over 30 different disciplines, who work at 20 different universities and research institutions. Their fields of research and work range from archaeology, film, computer science, psychology and molecular biotechnology to civil-society projects. Together, they use the space for creativity and innovation and for five years implement inter- and transdisciplinary projects that are relevant to science and society and particularly relevant to young researchers.
