Zuzanna Kozicka (Source: FMI) Spotlight on FMIers showcases the lives, work and passions of the institute's researchers and support staff. We talked to FMI PhD graduate Zuzanna Kozicka about her efforts to promote equity, diversity and inclusion in science, her work on 'molecular glues', and her excitement for an upcoming get-together with Nobel laureates and early career scientists from all over the world. Just weeks after completing her PhD in the Thomä lab last year, Zuzanna Kozicka received a generous postdoc grant, was recognized by Forbes in their Science & Healthcare "30 Under 30" Europe list, and was invited to the 72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting — a globally recognized forum for exchange between Nobel laureates and early career researchers. You graduated from the FMI in December and are now doing a bridging postdoc in the Thomä lab. What are your plans for the future? - I obtained funding from the Swiss National Science Foundation for a postdoc mobility grant, which is aimed at researchers who wish to ultimately pursue an academic career in Switzerland. Later this year, I'll move to Boston for a postdoc at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and the MIT's Koch Institute. But I aim to come back to Switzerland after two years.
