CV: Raquel de Oro Calderon comes from Spain and studied Industrial Technologies at Carlos III in Madrid (UC3M). After an almost year-long stint in the pharmaceutical industry (Eli Lilly and Company, opens an external URL in a new window), she returned to UC3M, where in 2012 she wrote a dissertation on the topic of "Master alloy design for liquid phase sintering of Mn-Si steels (Diseño de aleaciones maestras para la sinterización con fase liquida de aceros al Mn-Si, opens an external URL in a new window)" and received her doctorate. In 2013 she moved to the Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg (Sweden) as a postdoctoral researcher, where she researched the topic "Synthesis of WC for hard materials applications utilizing new carbon sources" for almost two years. The acquisition of a Marie Curie IEF (Intra European Fellowship) grant brought her to TU Wien in 2015. In 2019, she applied for the tenure track position Inorganic Multiphase and Composite Materials, which she has now successfully completed by qualifying as an associate professor.

Raquel de Oro Calderon's scientific home is the Research Unit of Chemical Technologies (E164-03) at the aforementioned institute and here the Research Group for Inorganic Materials, opens in new window, where she among other things, researches the development and production of novel metal alloys and hard metals.
