Biography
During his studies, he spent six months on an Erasmus exchange at INP Phelma in Grenoble, France, where he gained valuable experience in an international research environment.
For his master’s thesis, he explored 3D printing using digital light processing (DLP) with biobased monomers and conductive fillers, combining sustainability with innovative materials. This research opened the door to a research grant at Symbio, where he worked on conductive inks and films for battery applications.
In November 2024, he began his PhD, focusing on biobased adhesives with covalent adaptable networks.
