After graduating, Anne knew exactly where she wanted to go thanks to her student job at the SKZ: into research into 3D printing processes. She can now live out this passion as a research assistant at the Plastics Centre. The former chemistry (B. Sc.) and biofabrication (M. Sc.) student not only took part in various training and further education programmes here, but also wrote her Master's thesis there - after which she was allowed to stay. Anne is particularly enthusiastic about her research stay abroad, which enabled her to develop significantly, as well as her voluntary work in the chemistry student council initiative and outside the university in geriatric care.
