Welcome to my home page for the 2023-2024 ULB class “How To Make (almost) Any Experiments Using Digital Fabrication”! In the framework of this cours, we need to do a personal blog to introduce ourself so here is mine !

About me#

Alt text

So, my name is Diane Bilgischer and i’m student at the ULB. I am currently in my third year of bachelor in bioengineering and I still don’t kown which master I am going to choose next year. I decide to take this course because I am very curious about the thematics that will be introduced and discused and cannot wait to learn those new skills!

My background#

I was born and raised in Bruxelles Belgium but my family lives all arounfd the world! However, the majority of them are in Switzerland because my father side of my family originated from Saas-Fee which is a small village in the Haut-Valais. I’am currently asking for my switzerland nationality and the process is very long (already several years) but I hope to get an answer in the next 12 months.

my hobbies#

I love to read and to do pastery but with my studies I don’t have much time left for them. I also love to travel and had the chance to do sereval continents! My favorite travel was Taiand, I loved the culture, the site we have seen and the people we have met! I also love hiking in swiss mountains and I recently complete my first 4.000 + meter high climb and I cannot wait to do another this summer!

Previous work#

While my knowledge in informatics, software, etc. is limited, I already did several group project for university and in highschool.

Project in highschool#

I decided to take an history option in 5th and 6th grade which consisted of doing 4 big presentation during the year on subjects linked to a thematic choosen by our teacher. Usely we were paired but for our final projet we did the paper all togheter (8 peopel in total). I would say that I kown how to work with people in general but every group is different and there is allways place for improvment!

project at University#

  • Farm project: for this project we had to do an interview on a farm and it’s activities than compared it with another. The point of this project was definded the type of farmed we had and in the process realise all the difficulties that a farmer was facing in it’s everyday life. I liked this roject because it was very deversified and I have the feeling it’s going to be the same for the project of this cours.

  • Zoology presentation: in this project, we were by groupe of 4 and needed to do research and then a presentation on a animal by doing a video and it was in groupe. There was no real goal to this project exept to learn about the animales we were assigned and to marked use but it was still fun to do !
