Traditionally experimentation has been understood as an activity performed within the laboratory, but in the twenty-first century this view is being challenged. Schwarz uses ecological and environmental case studies to show how scientific experiments can transcend the laboratory.
Astrid Shwarz's main research area concerns the status and power of concepts and images in the process of generating, stabilizing and demarcating scientific knowledge. In particular, she focuses on concepts and metaphors, scientific models, the constitution of the research objects, the influence of images and diagrams as well as popular societal visions. She is based at ETH Zurich.
