Dr Morgane Gay-Bianco has been Faculty Manager of the Faculty of History since February 2021. She supports the Dean’s Office in the development of the faculty and serves as the primary point of contact for the teaching teams across the three programmes.

Dr Morgane Gay-Bianco obtained a Bachelor of Arts in French and History (2012) and a Master of Arts in Contemporary History (2014) from the University of Fribourg.

Her doctoral thesis (2020), entitled OSS 117: L’espion est-il mat? — The political imaginary of the Cold War in a popular French espionage series (1949–1972), examines how a widely consumed espionage production contributed to the formation and dissemination of political imaginaries during the Cold War. The study analyses constructions of the enemy, representations of security, and reading and reception practices. It was published by Éditions Antipodes in 2023 and is available in open access.
