The Weber Lab is a collaborative, supportive, and inclusive research environment. We value open communication, research integrity, curiosity, and a healthy balance between professional and personal life—and we believe that good science is best done in a respectful and welcoming atmosphere.

External Bachelor and Master students

We regularly offer Bachelor and Master thesis projects for students enrolled in Swiss universities. If you’re interested in joining the lab for a thesis project, please get in touch with a short motivation letter describing your interests and preferred thesis duration, along with a CV. We’re happy to discuss potential project ideas in more detail.

Self-funded postdoctoral fellowships

We welcome applications from prospective self-funded postdoctoral researchers (e.g. Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship; SNSF Ambizione Fellowship; etc). If you’re considering applying with the Weber Lab as host, please contact me 6-9 months before the call deadline to allow sufficient time to develop a strong proposal.
