Wiebke Drenckhan

She also works as illustrator for scientific journals and popular science books and she collaborates regularly with artists and designers.

In 2007, she is hired by the CNRS and joins Dominique Langevin’s research group at the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides at Paris-Sud University.

In 2014 she obtains her Habilitation à Diriger les Recherches on the topic “A science of transition – from liquid to solid foams”.

[3] Linking fundamental and applied research, she combines experiments and computer simulations to advance our understanding of the generation, stability and structure of liquid foams and emulsions.

Of particular interest to her work is the development of interfacial mechanisms to modify in a controlled manner how bubbles and drops interact in foams and emulsions in order to create self-assembled polymeric metamaterials.
