Professional expertise
With a scientific background in Fundamental Physics and Experimental Biophysics, I'm carrying out my PhD research in an interdisciplinary project aiming at investigating tissue-scale factors other than BMD influencing bone fracture risk. To reach this goal, I combine micromechanical testing, X-ray computed tomography, Raman spectroscopy, and proteomics for quantification of what is commonly referred to as bone quality.

Professional expertise
Group leader Architectured Materials. My research focuses on the design, synthesis, and multiscale analysis of architectured and hierarchical materials through combined experimental and modeling approaches. I investigate fundamental processes of plasticity and fracture at small scales under extreme conditions, e.g. cryogenic temperature and high strain rate, as well as multiscale failure and toughening mechanisms in hierarchical materials. This knowledge is translated into the simulation-guided design, synthesis, and characterization of microscale metamaterials with tunable material properties and added functionality.
