Biography

Mariachiara obtained her Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Biomedical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino in 2019 and 2021, respectively, both with a final grade of 110/110 cum laude. While attending the Master's Degree course she took part in the 16th cycle of the multidisciplinary honour program "Alta Scuola Politecnica", organized by Politecnico di Milano and Politecnico di Torino. From July 2022 to October 2022 she worked as an external collaborator at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering of Politecnico di Torino and there she started her PhD in Bioengineering and Medical-Surgical Sciences in November 2022. Her current research activity focuses on the development of novel in silico approaches for cardiovascular engineering. Specifically, she specializes in fluid-structure interaction simulation of heart valve prostheses, including mechanical aortic valves and transcatheter pulmonary valves. During her PhD she spent an abroad period as visiting PhD student at University College London (Institute of Cardiovascular Science).
