Zurich, Switzerland
I head the Laboratory for Building Energy Materials and Components, where we develop the next generation of thermal insulation materials and sorbents, including high-performance aerogel and low eco-impact bio-based solutions.
I lead a group of 6-8 scientists that develop the next generation of thermal insulation materials such as silica aerogel and vacuum insulation glazing.
Project management Research on vacuum insulating glazing, glass-to-metal bonding and aerogels
Project management Research on properties of magmatic liquids, experimental volcanology
Research on the incorporation of water in magmatic glasses
Project management Soil and groundwater studies
Research on structure and properties of silicate glasses High pressure experiments with synchrotron radiation
Research on the structure and properties of silicate glasses
