A great business card—for students and professionals—is the ultimate ice breaker and can keep the conversation going beyond the first meeting.

Tobias Bruegmann

Prof. Tobias Bruegmann is Juniorprofessor for physiology and pathophysiology at the Institute of Cardiovascular Physiology at the University Medical Center Göttingen since the beginning of 2019. He graduated in medicine in Bonn (2012) and received his MD in 2013 for establishing optogenetic stimulation of the heart and the PhD in 2019. Ever since, he focused his work on applying this new method to address new questions in cardiac electrophysiology, vegetative physiology and to explore new treatment options such as optogenetic termination of cardiac arrhythmia or laryngeal pacemaking. In...Read more

Helene Hopfer

Dr. Helene Hopfer, Rasmussen Career Development Professor and Assistant Professor of Food Science, holds a B.S. and M.S. in Polymer Science & Engineering, and a Ph.D. in Chemistry. She completed a postdoctoral stay at UC Davis where her research focused on factors affecting sensory and chemical properties of wines. She worked for the vegetable seed company HM.Clause to develop a sensory-assisted breeding pipeline, before she joined the Department of Food Science at Penn State in 2016.

Her research focuses on the human-food interface, and how food composition and food...Read more
