Executive Summary

Ulf Schiller holds diploma degrees in Computer Science and Physics from the University of Bielefeld and received his doctorate in Physics from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz after conducting his dissertation research at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research. He held postdoctoral appointments at the University of Florida, Forschungszentrum Jülich, and University College London. Dr. Schiller joined the University of Delaware in 2023 with a joint appointment in Computer and Information Sciences and Materials Science and Engineering. Prior to joining UD, he was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Materials Science at Clemson University, where he helped establish computational materials science as a new focus area. Dr. Schiller has broad expertise in developing multiscale simulation techniques and data-driven approaches that enable scientific discovery in materials science, soft matter physics, and computational biomedicine. His current research focuses on high-performance computing and machine learning for interfacial phenomena in complex fluid mixtures, multiphase transport in porous materials, and biomedical fluid dynamics in patient-specific geometries.
