Changes in our team

In January, we welcomed our new senior scientist, Dr. Franz Vilsmeier. After graduating from the TU Munich, Franz joined us to put into practice his experimental expertise, scientific know-how, and organizational skills. We are truly happy to have such a great addition to the team.

Dr. Gyandeep Pradhan joined the team to work on the FWF-fundend project MagNeuro. As a postdoctoral researcher, he is dealing with exciting experimental developments in neuromorphic computing. 

Dr. Noura Zenbaa graduated in January, presenting her excellent thesis, “Experimental realisation of direct- and inverse-design magnetic devices”. She has now joined industry. 

If things go as planned, two other members of the NanoMag’s PhD group will join her soon: both Rostyslav Serha and Andrey Voronov are going to defend their thesis in December. 
PhDs: Zenbaa + Serha and Voronov soon.

We have a lot of active master students: 

  • Philipp Rehberger, who is working with David Schmoll, 
  • Boris Valenta, who is collaborating with Fabian Majcen, 
  • Philip Jägger, who is guided by Franz Vilsmeier,
  • Iva Simonovic, who after finishing her Bachelor’s is continuing her work with Kristyna Davidkova, 
  • Simon Peinhaut, who is working under the guidance of Dr. Sebastian Knauer. 

Lastly,we have had many interns this summer! From the VDSP Summer internship we welcomed Boris Valenta and Hannah Arnsfelser. From the The Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) “Praktika für Schüler:innen”: Sevval and Emilia.
