Ursula Röthlisberger wins Doron prize

Doron prize to Prof. Röthlisberger
Professor Dr. Ursula Röthlisberger is a professor of computational chemistry and biochemistry at the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). In her area of research, she deals with the development of new methods of simulation for chemical and biological systems. With her research work, she has made an outstanding contribution to the development of complex, computer-aided multiscale simulation methods and their application in physical, chemical and biochemical systems.

Marc Rich established The Swiss Foundation for the Doron Prize in 1986 to annually recognize and support Swiss individual initiatives and charitable endeavors. Selection is made by the board members of the Foundation, composed of distinguished Swiss public leaders from the civic and non-profit sectors. The annual award ceremony with key Swiss leaders and media serves to highlight and increase awareness of the important work of prize recipients. Awardees receive CHF 100'000.
