Kristian studied chemistry at the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena (Germany) and the Eindhoven University of Technology (The Netherlands). In 2010 he was a visiting researcher in the group of Prof. Craig J. Hawker (University of California, Santa Barbara) before he completed his Ph.D. at the end of 2011 under the supervision of Prof. Ulrich S. Schubert in Jena. In 2012 Kristian received a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt-fellowship to conduct research in the groups of Prof. Frank Caruso (The University of Melbourne) and Prof. David M. Haddleton/ Prof. Thomas P. Davis (Monash University). In mid-2014 Kristian was appointed to the position of Senior Research Fellow at the University of Warwick (UK) to work alongside Prof. Haddleton. In April 2016 Kristian moved back to Melbourne as a NHMRC-ARC Dementia Research Fellow working at the Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS), where he established his independent research group. In 2018 Kristian became a MIPS Teaching Fellow.
Currently, Kristian holds a Senior Lecturer position at Materials Science & Engineering and MIPS, Monash University. He is also a Senior Visiting Fellow at the University of Warwick (UK) and an Honorary Fellow at The University of Melbourne (Australia). |
