No answer from EPFL Thesis advisors

[saeft]

Hi all,

I wanted to ask for guidance

In December I received an email from EPFL doctoral school regarding getting accepted in EDPY program (PhD-Physics). and they also gave me six months opportunity to find a thesis advisor. From 21 December I had started emailing some of the professors, but didn't received any reply from them.

I don't know what else should I do.

Is it because of Christmas holiday?! when it will be finished? (we do not have Christmas in our country, so I'm not much sure)

In May I was in Switzerland and contacted one of the professors, he replied me back then even though he was in Brazil. and advised me to meet one of his postdoc students. but he is not replying my emails too. what could be the reason? Did I leave bad impression? I even emailed his secretory this Saturday, but she didn't replied too.

Should I speak with them directly?! 

Thank you in advance.
