School of Engineering and Applied Sciences

Society in Science — Branco Weiss Fellow
Lewis Research Group, Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
Previously at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology

Daniele Foresti is a Research Associate at the Lewis laboratory at Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, since 2014. He earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, for which he was awarded with the ETH Medal for outstanding Doctoral Thesis. He is interested in working at the boundaries of interfacial phenomena and non-linear acoustics. At Harvard in the MRSEC IRG2, Daniel has introduced a new printing concept, namely acoustophoretic printing. Acoustophoretic printing has the potential to revolutionize the field of microparticle production and additive manufacturing by surpassing existing limitations in droplet generation technologies. His work is supported by the Society in Science — Branco Weiss Fellowship, that aims at funding those postdoctoral researchers in the world willing to engage in a dialogue on relevant social, cultural, political, or economic issues across the frontiers of their disciplines.
