First diploma thesis at the Institute of Biomaterials (WW7)
Friederike Gebhardt, a student of Materials Science and Engineering in our Department has completed her Diplomarbeit (engineering thesis) on: “Abscheidung von Chitosanschichten auf Magnesiumlegierungen” (“Deposition of Chitosan coatings on Magnesium alloys”). The research project was supervised by Prof. S.Virtanen (Chair for Surface Science and Corrosion, WW4) and Prof. Boccaccini at the Institute of Biomaterials (WW7), in collaboration with Ms Sigrid Keim (WW7). The research carried out is a part of a wider scientific collaboration between our Institute and the Chair for Surface Science and Corrosion.
