Fraunhofer Institute for Wood Research Award from the Society of Wood Science and Technology for Dr Juan Li
The Society of Wood Science and Technology (SWST) is committed to the future of wood research by, among other things, honouring the "Women Ambassadors Creating the Future of Wood Science". For 2024, Dr Juan Li, research associate at the Fraunhofer WKI, was accepted as one of the women in the "Women Ambassadors Creating the Future of Wood Science". The new ambassadors will be presented at the annual SWST International Convention in Portoroz, Slovenia, from 30 June to 5 July 2024. Dr Juan Li will be included in the travelling exhibition sponsored by SWST, which will pay tribute to the ambassadors over time.
A poster exhibition will be on display at the international congress from 30 June to 5 July 2024 in Portorož, Slovenia. The exhibition will be unveiled at the opening ceremony and reception and will continue to be presented throughout the week. The exhibition will then travel around the world and be on display at the 2025 SWST Congress in Fort Collins, Colorado.
Dr Juan Li is a research associate at the Fraunhofer WKI. She was already honoured with the Ph.D. Award of the International Academy of Wood Science in 2023. The internationally renowned award is presented once a year for outstanding research achievements in the field of wood and fibre science and technology. Dr Juan Li is responsible for the "Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM)" and "Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA)" laboratories at the Fraunhofer WKI and works in materials research. She is a postgraduate member of the DFG Research Training Group 2075 "Models for the description of state change during ageing of building materials and load-bearing structures" at the TU Braunschweig, in which the Fraunhofer WKI is a partner.
