I'd like to meet:
Hi, guys and gals, my name is Veronika. I firmly believe in science above all things but that doesn’t mean that one can’t have fun while doing his or her research. Besides joining forces with my best friend Florence and working for the “Angels of Mercy†initiative, I spend a lot time playing my DJ sets all around the world, trying to optimize every party I come across, and I also invest a lot of my energy in sports, even though my days of Olympic gold are already a few years behind me. These days, the Angels of Mercy are stationed in the Austrian Tirol, as most of you probably know by now, so I have a lot of opportunities to do some (helicopter-)skiing, skydiving, snowboarding, paragliding and speed-flying, which is great. I think racing or gliding down the side of a mountain at breakneck speeds is an experience as deep and rewarding as the studying of the human genome.
Let’s be friends, do some research together and have a laugh or two, Veronika
