Sylvain Bréchet est né le 13 octobre 1981 à Moudon (lieu d'origine Epesses, VD). Il a obtenu un Master de physique à l'EPFL en 2005. Il est allé à Cambridge pour y effectuer une thèse en cosmologie théorique de 2005 à 2009 sous la direction du Prof. Anthony Lasenby (FRS) et du Prof. Michael Hobson au Cavendish Laboratory de l'Université de Cambridge. Il est revenu à l'EPFL où il est depuis 2010 chargé de cours et collaborateur scientifique à l'institut de physique de la matière condensée. Il a enseigné la mécanique classique, la relativité restreinte et la thermodynamique à des étudiants en génie mécanique, en génie électrique et en physique. Il rédige actuellement un ouvrage de thermodynamique.
Sandrine Gerber
Sandrine Gerber studied chemistry at the "Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Paris" in France, where she obtained a diploma of chemical engineer in 1993. The same year she obtained a DEA (Master degree) of organic chemistry at the University Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI, France). From 1993 to 1996 she did a PhD in organic chemistry under the supervision of Prof. Jean-Pierre Genêt at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Paris. In 1996, she moved to University of Lausanne for a post-doctoral stay under the supervision of Prof. Pierre Vogel. In 1998, she was appointed Maître-Assistante at the Institute of Organic Chemistry in the University of Lausanne. In 2003, she obtained the habilitation to direct research from the University Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI, France). The same year, she was appointed scientific adjunct at the EPFL and senior scientist (Maître d'Enseignement et de Recherche) in 2006. In December 2014, she was promoted to titular professor. Since September 2007, Sandrine Gerber is deputy to the director of the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering (ISIC). She is also member of the Board of Directors of the Swiss Chemical Society. Since 2007, Sandrine Gerber is part-time lecturer at the university of Fribourg. She was awarded the Prize Eugene Schueller in 1997, the Prize Dufour for prospective organic chemistry in 2005 and the Werner Prize 2010. She also received a special mention in recognition of exceptional quality of pedagogic competencies in the teaching of basic sciences, given by the Direction of the School of Biology and Medicine from the University of Lausanne, in 2013. In October 2018, she will receive the Prize for Excellence in Teaching from the section of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering.
