The CIG, a unique location !

With its location within the Dorigny campus of the University of Lausanne, the CIG is a short walk away from the biology building (the Biophore) and one of its SVS partners, the EPFL. It is less than an hour away from its other SVS partner, the University of Geneva. Its location in Lausanne makes it an integral part of an extended research community that include the CHUV, the ISREC, the Ludwig Institute for Cancer research, and the Universities of Fribourg and Neuchâtel. It also benefits from its location within the center of the biotechnology industry in Switzerland.

If proximity to research and intellectual resources contribute to making it a premier center, the CIG is also an exceptionally attractive place to work for other reasons. It is located in a stunningly beautiful natural environment, with sailing, skiing and hiking opportunities all right nearby, and yet it benefits from the cultural life of the cities of Lausanne and Geneva. It is centrally located in Europe, well connected through rail, roads, and the international airport of Geneva. No wonder the CIG attracts researchers from all over the world!
