    My take on the #voicicommentnousprotéger challenge of @alain_berset (Thanks @NicolasBideau!): an hommage to Herbie Hancock “Chameleon” - a classic & a fun distraction from #COVID19. I now challenge @springman_sarah @Joel_Mesot @eggersnsf to tell us how they cope with confinement

    We have been planning this for a long time. And now the moment has come: @Joel_Mesot and I have switched seats. He will run @EPFL_en for one week, and I have the honor to direct @ETH_en, my alma mater. #ChangingPlaces

    True story: I forgot my suitcase in the train last night, but the driver found it, saw my number, called - and dropped it off on his way back to #Lausanne! #FantasticService #SBB #CFF @RailService @sbbnews @AndreasMeyer @EPFLevents @EPFL_en @EPFL

    The @SwissCovid app alerted me of an exposure to a #COVID19 positive person 10 days ago, and so I was in quarantine until now, slightly worried, but also a bit proud of our technology, which seems to work 💪👏 // Please load and use @SwissCovid.

    My communication expert tells me I have an obsession with #sunsets (which is not in line with the general communication strategy of the school:), but he allowed me to post one last one 😃🌅🌄 @MirkoBischBerg @EPFL_en @EPFL
