Mostafa Kiani Shahvandi has been awarded the ETH Zurich Silver Medal for his outstanding doctoral thesis titled "Geodetic Time Series Analysis and Prediction Using Machine Learning" (supervised by Prof. Benedikt Soja). 

The Living Planet Symposium 2025 (LPS25), which takes place every three years, was held in Vienna from 23-27 June 2025. From the Space Geodesy group, Laura Crocetti and Benedikt Soja participated.

Last week, Matthias had the opportunity to attend a workshop on "Science and Technology with the Wetterstein Millimeter Telescope (WMT)" at the Umweltforschungsstation Schneefernerhaus, located 2650 meters above sea level on the Zugspitze (Germany).

On the 12^th of June, Yuanxin Pan successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis entitled "Characterization of Reflected and Low-cost GNSS Signals with Machine Learning".

We are happy to announce that Leonardo Trentini joined the Space Geodesy group as a new Ph.D. student.
