Lormina.ch

Created in January 2024, Lormina.ch is a platform designed to provide academic researchers with valuable insights into the wide array of career opportunities beyond academia. This project was born out of my observations during four years at BSNL, a non-profit organization, and five years as a doctoral researcher, where I noticed a significant lack of accessible information on the topic. There is a growing demand among academic researchers to learn from professionals who have successfully transitioned to alternative careers.
