Our Group

The Complex Materials group is headed by Prof. André R. Studart and was established in 2009. Our research focuses on the creation of complex composite materials and the understanding of how their structures and properties correlate at different length scales.

Using self- and directed assembly methods, we are particularly interested in creating artificial composites that resemble biological materials and incorporate some of their remarkable structures and functions.

As part of the Department of Materials, we offer lectures on the BSc and MSc level focusing on the ceramics parts of the material science curriculum.
