New Professor in mathematics - Prof. Susanna Zimmermann
Susanna Zimmermann is returning to her alma mater with her appointment as professor of mathematics.
Professor Susanna Zimmermann will take up her professorship in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science on 15 February 2025. She earned her Ph.D. in Basel in 2016 and is currently a professor at the Mathematical Institute of Orsay at Paris-Saclay University.
Her research focuses on birational geometry and special mathematical objects, the so-called Cremona groups. These play an important role in geometry because they help us to better understand complex shapes and their properties.
