Welcome Santona

Since September, we welcome in our group Dr Santona Khatun. Santona obtained the Dean’s post-doctoral fellowship for her project on the origin of the metalimnetic methane in Lake Geneva. She is working in both the Lakes’ group and Prof. Berg’s group. She came a long way, over from Bangladesh but she started field work as soon as arrived in Switzerland. Check her profile!
