Short Biography
Cedar Urwyler joined the Interface Group for his Bachelor thesis in February 2015. He studies for an ETH Bachelor degree in Interdisciplinary Sciences. His research investigates the possibility of mechanosensing in primary neuron cells using a micro-electrode array. Cedar successfully completed his work on June 2015. He plans to have an intermediate year during which he will do civil service and internships and then continue his studies at the ETH.
