In our @wemakeit crowdfunding campaign we are trying to raise enough money to buy a Nanoduct® device that will improve the diagnosis of #cysticfibrosis in Africa. @AxonlabAG would you contribute in this #RareDiseaseDay2023? @SwissIonChannel @UDNIss https://wemakeit.com/projects/cystic-fibrosis-in-africa

It feels strange! Most of my old #IonChannels colleagues are at #BPS2023! I fly now to #CapeTown for the amazing @ICHG2023 to meet #channelopathies friends from #ScienceInAfrica and the rest of the world!

We launched today our crowdfunding project "Cystic Fibrosis in Africa." Your generosity can help Nada and Michèle with their research on #CF in African countries (@snsf_ch will also co-finance it) #RareDisease #ScienceInAfrica #Channelopathies

My academic life is split in:
1) Vice-Rector for Research @unibern since 1.1.22. Working on making UniBe a place where everyone can spend time asking big and small questions about the world. #BetterScience
2) PI at the Inst. of Biochemistry & Molecular Medicine. Our group is fascinated by #IonChannels & #Channelopathies.
3) Being a voice for the many scientists from less privileged parts of the world, particularly the ones from the African continent. #ScienceInAfrica
