F.M. den Hoed, MSc

Research interests
I am interested in the development of polymeric materials and novel processing technologies. I am drawn to projects that find practical solutions to real-world problems concerning people, animals and the environment they live in. How can we improve their lives in a sustainable way?
My background in Engineering and Polymer Chemistry provide me with the experience to work on a wide array of challenges. During my PhD, my work concerned techniques and materials for microfabrication with 2-photon lithography. Currently I specialize in rheological characterization of food additives.
I am always eager to learn new skills and therefore prefer to work within multidisciplinary teams that work on the threshold between research and industry. For instance, my participation in the 5D nanoprinting Horizon EU project was a fantastic experience. https://5dnanoprinting.eu/
