The Swiss Young Academy is excited to announce the launch of a new podcast series - "Spark: stories from advocates for global change" - debuting on March 28, 2025. The series features thought-provoking, student-led interviews with a wide array of academic and non-academic experts from Switzerland and beyond. Together, they explore urgent global issues such as artificial intelligence, the impact of social media on democracy, human rights, and climate change - critical topics that shape our present and future.

The Swiss Young Academy is launching a new project dedicated to promoting research practices characterised by empathy and humanity.

His life is characterized by variety, while his academic career is driven by curiosity and interest. Servan Grüninger, a founding member of the Swiss Young Academy and co-founder of the think tank “Reatch”, could perhaps be described as an intellectual nomad. He is currently working on his dissertation in Vienna.
