It is with great pleasure that I can announce that Sandra Hofmann, who is currently a Group Leader at the Institute for Biomechanics and an Assistant Professor at the Eindhoven University of Technology, has been awarded an ERC Starter Grant and almost at the same time a Marie Curie Career Integration Grant for her work on "Real-time monitoring of load induced remodeling in tissue-engineered bone". These awards come with a total research support of 1.6 million Euro.
