My Current Activities

2024 January - June

I am participating in the development of an SNFS research proposal on Human-Building Interaction with Self-Owning Autonomous Buildings. My contribution focuses on applying the concept of the Metabolism of a Building to the Living Innovation Lab in Acquarossa, Switzerland.

I organised and chaired a series of four multidisciplinary workshops exploring the integration of the four pillars of the Future Cities Laboratory Global into daily research practices. Each workshop was dedicated to one pillar: SCIENCE, DESIGN, ENGINEERING, GOVERNANCE. The outcomes of these workshops are published here.

#teaching #leadership

In March 2024, we launched a new Engagement Platform for the Future Cities Laboratory Global. This platform enhances interaction among research projects and between research projects and stakeholders. It also includes a framework to store, share, and visualize data produced by the research programme. I presented the new Engagement Platform to the Singapore ETH Centre Governing Board in March 2024.
