We are delighted to welcome Dr. Mariia Hruzd to CiTOS, the Center for Integrated Technology and Organic Synthesis at the University of Liège.
Mariia joins our team as a postdoctoral researcher to contribute to the Interreg Poly-DREAM project—Polymers & Technologies to Advance Additive Manufacturing. This ambitious cross-border initiative aims to support SMEs in the Meuse-Rhine region by developing advanced polymer materials and additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, with a strong emphasis on sustainability, circular economy, and industrial upscaling.
Mariia brings expertise in organic and organometallic synthesis, catalysis, and depolymerization, with research experience spanning Ukraine and France. With master degrees in both Analytical and Organic Chemistry and experiences at the University of Angers, University of Rennes 1, and University of Strasbourg, Mariia is an excellent addition to the team. At CiTOS, she will focus on the flow synthesis and scale-up of monomers and polymer precursors, reinforcing our contribution to sustainable polymer production within Poly-DREAM.
Welcome aboard, Mariia: we are excited to have you with us!
