Thibault Vervenne
Graduate Visiting Researcher Student, Mechanical Engineering
BioThibault Vervenne is a PhD researcher in Soft Tissue Biomechanics, guided by Nele Famaey at KU Leuven (Belgium).
Thibault is currently visiting the Living Matter Lab of Ellen Kuhl, as part of Stanford Bio-X.
His research passion lies in the middle of the scientific triangle connecting engineering, medicine and material science. Thibault combines (I) computer models and simulations in biomechanical engineering, with (II) clinical applications in cardiac surgery, and (III) polymeric medical textiles for cardiovascular applications.
Specifically, Thibault's academical journey is focused on the design and development of a mechanocompatible external support for the Ross procedure. At Stanford, Thibault is therefore working on the automated biomechanical model discovery of cardiovascular tissues and devices through neural networks. -
Luca Vialetto
Postdoctoral Scholar, Aeronautics and Astronautics
BioLuca Vialetto earned his master's degree in physics at the University of Padua (Italy) in 2017, with honour. His doctoral studies were conducted at the Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research (Eindhoven, the Netherlands), with focus on computational modeling of plasmas for conversion of CO2 into chemicals. He obtained the PhD in Applied Physics in November 2021 at the Eindhoven University of Technology, with honour. After that, he was employed as a postdoctoral researcher at Kiel University (Germany). Luca's research interests include plasma physics and chemistry, data driven models, and high performance computing. He is the recipient of the 2021 Student Award for Excellence given at the 74th Gaseous Electronics Conference and of the 2023 Rutherford Plasma Physics Communication Prize given by IOP.
