Anne has always been curious about exploring (and actively transgressing) disciplinary boundaries. She works as a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zürich, where she has specialized in using nucleic acids of non-biological origin as data carriers. Her current focus is DNA-based cryptography, working at the intersection of chemistry, biotechnology, chemical engineering, materials science and information technology. Aside from her core research, she has been part of science communication initiatives, transdisciplinary projects and art collaborations, aiming to reflect on the ethical and political dimensions of science.
