Lorenzo Bonetti

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Pavia - Project: ERC Starting Grant CoDe4Bio, ID 101039467 (funding: European Union).

Lorenzo studied biomedical engineering at the Polytechnic University of Milan, where he also received a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering, working on biobased stimuli-responsive hydrogels for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. He is working on new approaches to the 3D printing/bioprinting of smart polymers and hydrogels and their characterization.

Matteo Arricca

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Pavia - Project: ERC Starting Grant CoDe4Bio, ID 101039467 (funding: European Union).

Matteo studied Civil Engineering at the University of Cagliari, completing his MSc thesis in collaboration with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He defended his PhD thesis on Finite Strain Chemo-Thermo-Electro-Mechanics with Applications in Mechanobiology in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Brescia, and in collaboration with the University of California, Santa Barbara. He is working on theoretical and computational modeling of the thermo-mechanical, failure and fracture behavior of smart polymers.

Nicoletta Inverardi

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Pavia - Project: ERC Starting Grant CoDe4Bio, ID 101039467 (funding: European Union).

Nicoletta graduated in Mechanical and Materials Engineering at the University of Brescia where she completed her PhD under the supervision of Prof. Stefano Pandini in the Materials Science and Technology laboratory. During her PhD she spent 15 months as a visiting student in the Langer Lab and Traverso Lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Between Brescia and MIT, her research focused on stimulus responsive materials for drug delivery. She held a postdoctoral position at the Harris Orthopaedics Laboratory at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston. Under the mentorship of Prof. Ebru Oral and Prof. Orhun Muratoglu, Nicoletta worked on the preparation, characterization and clinical translation of high-performance therapeutic biomaterials for orthopedics implants.

Paul Charkaluk

PhD Fellow, École nationale des ponts et chaussées and University of Pavia - Project: European Project MISCEA, ID 101126720 (funding: European Union).

Paul studied Mechanical Engineering at Ecole Centrale de Lyon, and completed his MSc thesis in collaboration with Phononic Vibes, on the development of a metamaterial barrier for the reduction of groundborne vibrations. He subsenquently worked during three years on the development of metamaterials applied to NVH issues. He is working on eco-innovative shape memory architected dampers for the seismic protection of infrastructures.
