3D printing of - pharmaceutical pills - mechanical metamaterials - neuromorphic electronics

Professional academic background

Dr. Jiongyi Yan is a postdoctoral research associate and his current research is 3D printing pharmaceuticals. He acquired his PhD in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at Loughborough University in 2023. He was a postdoctoral research associate for 4D printing of functionalised memory hydrogels at University of Bristol until May of 2024. His background and expertise pertain to additive manufacturing, print-path and structure design, topology optimisation, mechanics, and polymer science.
