<\/a><\/p>\nIn July of 2021, Dr. Jochen Mueller will join the department as an assistant professor. Prior to JHU, he was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University. His research focuses on the computational design and fabrication of mechanical metamaterials and structures with outstanding physical properties and new functionalities. Examples include: innovative 3D printing processes, multiscale lattice materials, and novel design optimization algorithms. Prior to joining Harvard, Jochen obtained a doctorate with Kristina Shea from the Engineering Design and Computing group at ETH Zurich and was awarded the ETH medal for outstanding dissertations. Jochen graduated with a Bachelor\u2019s and Master\u2019s degree with distinction from Albstadt-Sigmaringen University and Imperial College London, respectively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-28738","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news_categories-department-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
