Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Cassar is a materials scientist and professor-researcher with a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering and over a decade of experience studying glass science, crystallization, and non-equilibrium transport processes. Based in São Carlos, Brazil, he leads research and teaching roles at CNPEM and Ilum while bringing a long postdoctoral track record from the Vitreous Materials Laboratory (CeRTEV) under Prof. Edgar Zanotto. He combines deep experimental expertise in glass formation and controlled crystallization with proficiency in Python for numerical simulation and data-driven materials methods. Passionate about reproducible science, he applies quantitative modeling to link viscosity, relaxation and diffusion with nucleation and growth phenomena. His background includes industry exposure to Six Sigma cost-reduction methodology, reflecting an ability to translate fundamental insights into practical improvements. Colleagues describe him as a rigorous, computationally fluent experimentalist who bridges traditional glass science and modern data-centric approaches.
