The past year has been strange and trying. Patience and endurance are what we all need on many levels. The Corona virus pandemic has not only changed the way we interact, work and study, it has also brought out uncertainty in many ways.
In the December episode of the ETH-Podcast, we talk to Tierry Hörmann, the senior, and Luca Dahle, the new president of VSETH, the umbrella organization of all students, and how they contact their fellow students. Sarah Springman, rector of ETH Zurich, joins the discussion and compares this phase to participating in a triathlon with no finish line in sight. The three guests also discuss the few positive aspects of the crisis.
The end-of-year episode marks the start of a series of podcasts tackling the theme of uncertainty. In our upcoming episodes, we'll talk to scientists and students about uncertainty in climate as well as cybersecurity.
