What do we want academia to be like in the future? Thank you very much for excellent discussions and an enriching collaboration @careoperative & many more!

If academic knowledge shall transform societal challenges, then also academia itself needs to change! Our blogpost brings together visions and ideas, stemming from our session at #ITD21, and a list of interesting resources on the topic! A true collaborative effort ❤

La stagiaire de notre équipe à l'@EPFL, pleinement vaccinée avec un vaccin reconnu par la Suisse, n'a pourtant pas droit à un certificat Covid : parce qu'elle vient du Japon et a été vaccinée là. @BAG_OFSP_UFSP, on pourrait trouver une solution pour ça rapidement? Merci.
