The Katja Poković Research Fund

Katja Poković (PhD) Ph.D. was Director of Laboratory and Customer Services at Schmid & Partner Engineering AG (SPEAG) in Zurich from 1999 – 2021. She was a major contributor to the success of all partner units of the Zurich 43 family, dedicating her entire professional life to the subject of electromagnetics and the interaction of electromagnetic fields with living organisms. Sadly, Katja passed away on December 15, 2021.

The Katja Poković Research Fund has been established to keep Katja’s memory alive and to contribute to further research and education in her field of interest. Two funding instruments are available: research fellowships specifically for female applicants, and funding support for research projects for project leaders, postdoctoral fellows, or graduate students (of any gender) employed by the IT'IS Foundation.
