Background

I am a respiratory physician from Bern, Switzerland. After graduating from Kiel University, Germany in 2005 I moved to Switzerland where I completed my specialist training in internal and respiratory medicine. I worked as a clinical physician in the Department of Pulmonary Medicine of the University Hospital Bern before I started the fellowship, co-funded by the ERS and ELF.
