OpenPhase appoints a new CEO
Posted on April 1, 2022We are pleased to inform you that the company's board of directors has selected a new chief executive officer 🎉.
Prof. Dr. Ingo Steinbach is now in charge of the team as we continue our journey! He is a pioneer of the phase-field theory with early publications from 1996. His "Multi-Phase-Field" approach, with contributions from collaborators and other scientists worldwide, forms a standard for multi-phase application in metallurgy and other fields of applied materials research. Applications range from pattern formation during solidification over solid-state transformation during materials processing to materials degradation and failure. Previously, he served as a managing director of The Interdisciplinary Centre for Advanced Materials Simulation (ICAMS). He is now the chair of Scale-Bridging Thermodynamic and Kinetic Simulation, Ruhr University Bochum. We're delighted to have him aboard.
