Aldo Roberto Boccaccini (born 2 September 1962 in San Rafael,
Argentina) is a nuclear engineer and material scientist. He is
currently a Professor of Biomaterials and Head of the Institute of
Biomaterials at the Department of Materials Science and
Engineering, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen,
Germany.
Boccaccini studied 2 years of electromechanical engineering at
Universidad Tecnologica Nacional, in San Rafael, Argentina, and
earned his engineering degree in Nuclear Engineering at Instituto
Balseiro, S. C. de Bariloche, Argentina in 1987. He then moved to
Germany and carried out his doctoral studies at RWTH Aachen, where
he earned his doctoral degree (Dr.-Ing) in 1994. He then held
postdoctoral positions in the UK at University of Birmingham,
School of Metallurgy and Materials and in the USA, University of
California, San Diego. In 2000 Boccaccini joined the Department of
Materials at Imperial College London [1] (UK) and then returned to
Germany in 2007 to complete his Habilitation at Technical
University Ilmenau. Since 2009 he is working at the Department of
Materials Science and Engineering at University of
Erlangen-Nuremberg as Chair and Head of the Institute of
Biomaterials.
