Additional information
Guido Panzarasa, born 1988, received his PhD in Chemical Sciences from the University of Eastern Piedmont "Amedeo Avogadro" (Alessandria, Italy) in 2016. After a stay as research assistant at Montanuniversitaet (Leoben, Austria), he spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at Empa (St. Gallen, Switzerland).
In 2018 he joined ETHZ in the Laboratory of Soft and Living Materials led by Prof. Eric R. Dufresne (D-MATL), where he developed a completely new line of research on time-domain self-assembly of materials based on a molecular systems engineering (systems chemistry) approach.
In June 2020 he was promoted Group Leader in the Wood Materials Science Laboratory led by Prof. Dr. Ingo Burgert (D-BAUG, D-MATL). His Active and Adaptive Wood Materials group focuses on enabling wood with novel functionalities (including time-programmability), promoting their use for future sustainable smart buildings.
Guido Panzarasa is an active member of many European scientific societies, including the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and the Swiss Chemical Society (SCS). He served as President (2019-2020) of the Swiss Young Chemists' Association (SYCA) which he joined in 2018 as board member and ETHZ representative.
Guido Panzarasa is author and co-author of more than 50 scientific publications in peer-reviewed international journals (Scopus ID: 37064892500). A complete list of publications is available through ORCID. He is an active referee for many scientific journals (Publons ID: 1342330).
