Short Bio

Alexander Greiner, currently a PhD student at the Institute of Continuum Mechanics and Biomechanics (LKM), studied Mechanical Engineering at the FAU, and finished his master’s degree with distinction in 2021. He is currently working within a DACH project in close collaboration with the group of Prof. Gerhard A. Holzapfel at TU Graz. Thereby, he is mainly working on computational models to explore the poro-viscoelastic nature of human brain tissue. Since 2023 he is an associate member of the CRC 1540 “Exploring Brain Mechanics”. Besides, he is interested in tennis, bouldering and climbing.
