Urszula Stachewicz is a professor in material science at AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow, Poland. She graduated from the Delft University of Technology with PhD in electrohydrodynamic of liquids to use electrospray as an on-demand deposition method, with research performed at Philips Research Laboratories in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. She conducted postdoctoral research at Queen Mary, University of London (UK) and work at spin-out company Nanoforce Technology Ltd. in polymer science and electrospun fibers. In 2018 she was a Visiting Fellow at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy, UK. Her research activity is focused on the surface properties of electrospun fibers for biomedical and water and energy harvesting and in situ mechanical testing of synthetic and naturally structured materials. She developed advanced 3D tomography protocols using focus ion beam and scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) for nanofibrous biomaterials and membranes. In 2020 she has been awarded with the ERC starting grant. More information can be found at: http://biocom4saven.agh.edu.pl/people/
