About me

Hi everyone, my name is Jonas J. Schmid. I am a postdoctoral researcher in Political Science at the University of Bern, Switzerland. You can find more information on me on the portrait-site of the University of Bern or you can connect with me on Linked In. Or just ask using the contact form on this site.

In my research, I primarily focus on energy policy and politics, looking to help advance the renewable energy transition(s) in Switzerland and in Europe. Other research interests include political institutions, their digital transformation as well as climate change policies. I mainly work quantitatively and comparatively, but I appreciate a good case study more than you might think.
