The second-largest city in Switzerland after Zurich,Geneva has a good position on the south- western end of Lake Geneva, in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Visitors to Geneva will find a clean and elegant city. Here are some best things to do in Geneva.
Catch the Spray from the Jet d'Eau
Installed in 1886 to control the outflow of water from a nearby power station,the Jet d'Eau(water jet)soon became a symbol of the city of Geneva.It shoots water nearly 140 me- ters into the air and is one of the tallest fountains in the world. Unless winds are too strong, the Jet d'Eau runs every day and is illuminated(照亮)at night .
Tour the Palais des Nations
Constructed in the 1930s as the headquarters of the short-lived League of Nations,the Palais des Nations(Palace of Nations)is a major tourist attraction. Visitors are free to wan-
der it or may jump in on an hour-long guided tour of several of the buildings.
Take a Break at the Jardin Anglais & the Flower Clock
All roads in Geneva seem to lead to the Jardin Anglais—a small,prettily planted lake- front(湖边平地)garden in the center of Geneva . Crowds gather here for the flower clock,an oversized timepiece with seasonal flowers. Plenty of sitting areas,mature shade trees, and a
central fountain make this a relaxing place to take a break from sightseeing.
Stroll(漫步)along the Lakefront and Riverside
The Jardin Anglais is just one of several places to admire the lake and the Jet d'Eau. The

After Ifinished my PhD in 2014 at Duke University,I stayed for an extra year to finish a paper and look for a postdoc(博士后)position . The first step of my process was to decide what I wanted to do with my career, and then I should find a laboratory that would help me to achieve that. I was a bit anxious about making such a strong statement about my career—a
feeling that I think is shared by many graduating students.
The next step in my process was to broadly identify what type of field I wanted to work in and which techniques,system and organism I wanted to learn. Several people advised me to change one or two of these choices from my PhD work, which was in yeast cell biology(酵母 细胞生物学) .Although I really value having experience in multiple fields and techniques,I don't think this change is absolutely necessary. Ialso talked my options through with my PhD adviser,Daniel Lew,and my lab mates. In the end, I decided to stay working with yeast but
to take on more biochemistry approaches.
I then put together a list of possible labs as Iread papers and university websites.By this point,my partner and I had decided that we would like to live in Europe,because it would be a great opportunity to move somewhere else and experience a different way of living. I
preferred labs in Europe,but I included many in the United States as well.
I applied to eight labs by e-mail: four labs in the United States and four in Europe. In the end,I decided on John Diffley's lab at the Francis Crick Institute in London.
I could imagine how I would develop as a scientist in John's lab and ultimately gain more
