Get to know the member groups of the Quantum Center and the diverse fields of research in quantum science and technology conducted at ETH.

Welcome to the 2025 Quantum Center Research Fellows, whose PhD and postdoctoral research projects contribute to advancing fundamental sci- ence and quantum technologies.

Zurich has a prominent place in the history of quan- tum science and technology - we profile a few of the protagonists who shaped the field over the past century.

dents and postdocs hosted by research groups of the Quantum Center at ETH Zurich. The objective of the Quantum Center Research Fellowship programme is to fund PhD students and postdocs hosted by member groups of the Quantum Center at ETH Zurich. It supports innovative and original scientific research that fits well into the context of the host group while fostering the independence of the fellow. In addition, the fellows will be responsible for helping to bring together the PhD and postdoc community in the Quantum Center, for example by organizing technical exchange workshops or social activities.

The Quantum Center is committed to increasing diversity in quantum science, and candidates from under-represented groups are especially encouraged to apply. Furthermore, applications in groups of young PIs and PIs with small group sizes are equally encouraged. The Quantum Center Research Fellowship is endowed by the Dr. Alfred and Flora Spälti Fonds, the Heidi Ras Foundation, the Alexandra..

ing achievements in the field of Synthetic Organic Chemistry. The prize is awarded by the Society of Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Japan. The Morandi group develops a wide range of conceptually novel chemical reactions like shuttle catalysis, single-bond metathesis or nitrogen-atom insertion that provide new strategies to construct, edit, and deconstruct organic molecules, thereby significantly advancing the field of organic chemistry. The group has also leveraged these transformations in interdisciplinary applications (e.g., recyclable polymers, POP upcycling, drug editing) and has investigated their mechanisms in great depth.

“The Mukaiyama Award is named after one of the most creative Japanese chemists, who developed numerous field-defining reactions. It is therefore a particular honor for our research to be recognized with this award.” Bill Morandi
