Excellent basic research as well as inter- and transdisciplinarity is our foundation and strength. In our eminent networks, we conduct research nationally and internationally across disciplines and faculties, in Switzerland, Europe and worldwide.
With our wide range of study programs, attractive combination options in the major/minor system and the early inclusion of research elements in the degree course, we are training the next generation of natural scientists for the future to come.
As largest faculty of mathematics and natural sciences in Switzerland, and second largest UZH faculty, we offer outstanding working, research and learning conditions and enable to discover the fascinating world of mathematics and sciences.
With “SMARTdrugs” a team of researchers from UZH with international partners aims to create a new class of therapies: “radiotheranostics”. These drugs combine diagnostic and therapeutic radionuclides in a supramolecular compound with the purpose of imaging and treating tumors.
