Greetings, I'm Marion, currently pursuing my PhD at ETH Zurich. My research focuses on unraveling the mystery of mosquito attraction to humans, particularly examining the influence of women's reproductive biology. Through extensive analysis of human skin volatiles, I aim to determine whether pregnant women or women in varying menstrual phases are more appealing to these insects.

Outside the lab, I thrive on scaling mountain peaks and embarking on adventures to uncharted territories. And if there's a single fact you should remember about me, it's my insatiable appetite, with eggplant being my ultimate culinary passion.
