Committee 2020
Edwin
Genoud-Prachex
I am studying physics at the University of Geneva, currently in the MSc first year. I am really interested in theoretical physics; during my bachelor’s studies I have particularly enjoyed analytical mechanics and electrodynamics.
It is my second year in the YPF committee. I really like visiting remarkable places in the world of Physics and Science while meeting other students from other universities. Besides studying physics I have a few hobbies like e.g. gliding, skiing, music, etc.
Anna Lüber
I am studying physics in my last year of Bachelor at the University of Bern. I am really interested in fields like astrophysics, especially space research. Surely, Stephen Hawking was my inspiration! Besides my studies, I do a lot of sports and I love to meet new people with the same interests like me. I think, the YPF does exactly this and thats the reason why I am part of it.
Toni Berger
I am currently working on my bachelor in physics. Right now I’m on my second year at the University of Basel, where I was accepted for the Honor’s Track for physics, laying the focus for my future studies on experimental physics.
I’m really looking forward to my first year in the YPF committee. Because even though I haven’t been to any YPF event yet, I’ll be sure to give it my best.
My free-time activities, besides studying physics, are playing video games, jogging, and watching series and movies.
Mathieu Erard
I am currently studying physics at the University of Freiburg in order to obtain my Bachelor's degree. I am really passionate about physics and I want to pass on this passion by becoming a teacher.
As I am always interested in gaining more knowledge, I have decided to join the YPF committee, because this is an opportunity to take part in the organization of a physics forum and to get a little more involved in this broad and exciting field of physics.
Frederik Van der Brugge
Due to my strong interest in natural sciences and their technological applications, I have chosen to study physics at the ETH in Zurich. I am currently in the second year of my Bachelor. Apart from physics, I am also interested in artificial intelligence, robotics and automation.
In my free time, I like to play video games, hang out with friends or exploit my netflix subscription. On very rare occasions, you will also find me doing cheesy things like reading a book, doing sports or travelling.
As one of the newbies at the Young Physicists Forum, I am excited to help establish a society of physicists that reaches beyond lecture rooms. I also look forward to organizing and participating in the YPF forums, which celebrate the numerous fascinating sides of physics.
Johannes Eberle
I am in the first year of my studies towards a bachelor‘s degree in Physics at ETH Zürich. My preferred fields are particle physics, as well as computer science.
Besides my studies I like playing tennis and Go. Moreover, I enjoy reading books and travelling.
Meeting new people that are as passionate about physics as I am, has been one of my greatest experiences over the course of the past few years. That is why I am looking forward to the next YPF Forum which will also be my first.
