Marta D'Elia
Adjunct Professor, Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering (ICME)
BioI’m a research/computational scientist working on the design and analysis of models and data-driven algorithms for the simulation of complex, multiscale and multiphysics problems. My background and training have foundations in Numerical Analysis, Scientific Computing, Inverse Problems, Control and Optimization, and Uncertainty Quantification. In the past five years I have focused on Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) and Deep Learning. I am an expert in Nonlocal/Fractional Modeling and Simulation (10 years) with application to Continuum Mechanics, Subsurface Transport, Image Processing, and Turbulence. I have a master's degree in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano (2007) and a PhD in Applied Mathematics from Emory University (2011).

Rafaela Da Silva Presa
Graduate Visiting Researcher Student, Mechanical Engineering
BioRafaela is a master in Bioengineering (Molecular Biotechnology branch) since 2019 by Faculty of Engineering of University of Porto, Portugal (FEUP)/ School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences of University of Porto (ICBAS) with her MSc thesis done in the field of biomaterials for bone cancer treatment and regeneration simultaneously.
Rafaela is performing her PhD project in Biofabrication Group in the Institute for Innovation and Research in Health from University of Porto (i3s). The project is focused on the development of mechano-modulatory 3D in vitro model of human skin fibrosis. Currently, Rafaela is doing a period abroad at Chaudhuri Lab, Mechanical Engineering department at Stanford University, to study the impact of viscoelasticity in fibroblast fate and activation.
Moreover, she is enrolled in the International Doctoral Program in Cellular and Molecular Biotechnology Applied to Health Sciences (BiotechHealth) in ICBAS from University of Porto.
Her multidisciplinary background in bioengineering and biomaterials allowed her to develop strong skills in complementary research areas ranging from materials synthesis and biofabrication to cellular biology.
Rafaela has excellent communication skills and experience in presenting scientific data in national and international meetings.
