Zurich Science Fiction Network
The Zurich Science Fiction Network (ZSFN) has the mission of bringing together science fiction scholars and enthusiasts from German-speaking Switzerland for collective events and projects. We organise events in Zurich and also inform our members about science fiction-related happenings in all of German-speaking Switzerland (several of which are in English).
The ZSFN was established in 2024 by Prof. Dr. Andreas Kilcher (ETH Zürich) and Dr. Sarah Lohmann (ETH Zürich). Its executive committee members are Andreas Kilcher, Sarah Lohmann, Prof. Dr. Christine Lötscher (UZH) andPD Dr. Simon Spiegel (UZH).
