Dr. Richard Weinkamer
Richard Weinkamer has been working as Material Researcher at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in Potsdam since 2003.
His research fields are Mechanobiological systems like bone; computer modeling of mechanics, growth and adaptation of biomaterials; structure-function relations and mechanical properties of hierarchically structured biological tissues; and phase transformation in natural and artificial materials.
