For the past four years, we have featured conversations with experts on current research topics in the ETH podcast. At the moment the podcast is taking an indefinite break. Until we launch a new podcast format, 43 exciting episodes are available for you to listen to. The alumni podcast "We Are ETH", a podcast series featuring stories from alumni and friends of ETH Zurich moved to its own channel: https://circle.ethz.ch/podcast/ -- ETH Zurich – Where the future begins! Our university for science and technology dates back to the year 1855, when the founders of modern-day Switzerland created it as a centre of innovation and knowledge. At ETH Zurich, students discover an ideal environment for independent thinking, researchers a climate which inspires top performance. Situated in the heart of Europe, yet forging connections all over the world, ETH Zurich is pioneering effective solutions to the global challenges of today and tomorrow. ETH Zurich has an excellent reputation in scientific circles: 21 Nobel laureates have studied, taught or researched here, and ETH regularly ranks as one of the world’s top universities.

episode 43: Skin matters
SKINTEGRITY.CH
What began at lunch between the ETH-Professors Sabine Werner and Edoardo Mazza emerged as a nationwide interdisciplinary consortium of scientists from diverse universities and hospitals. The goal of SKINTEGRITY.CH is to understand and treat skin diseases and abnormalities in wound healing.
Sabine and Edoardo from the ETH as well as Lukas Sommer from the University of Zürich talk about our largest organ, the skin - from the tiniest particles to its breeding. They also let us know how collaboration works in such a large group and why it empowers the next generation of researchers.
A transcript of this podcast is available on the ETH podcast websites.
