Prof. em. Walter Gander helped Switzerland acquire a high-performance computer, promoted the implementation of e-mail at ETH Zurich, and wrote the first book using LaTeX. In this interview with Lukas Fässler, high above the rooftops of Zurich, he talks about the beginnings of the Department of Computer Science and about a career that stretched from St. Gallen to Hong Kong.

Professor Zhendong Su is now a member of the Academia Europaea, a pan-European Academy of Humanities, Letters, Law, and Sciences. Congratulations!

Daniel Schenker received his diploma in computer science from ETH Zurich in 1988. Afterwards, he turned his hobby into his job and vice versa: today, he is a jazz musician and music professor who enjoys coding in his free time.

The rETHink project was launched by President Joël Mesot in 2020. More than 600 ETH members have participated in various capacities in the six workstreams so far. One of them is Andre Kahles, Senior Scientist in the Biomedical Informatics Group (BMI) in the Department of Computer Science.
