Miren Aristizabal Segarra

Miren Aristizabal Segarra serves as a Senior Researcher at CEIT (Asociación Centro Tecnológico Ceit), an institution formally linked to the University of Navarra where she maintains her primary academic affiliation.

She completed her doctoral studies at the University of Navarra in 2011, defending a thesis on the sintering behavior and wear/oxidation resistance properties of WC-Ni-Co-Cr composite alloys under the supervision of Dr. José Manuel Sánchez Moreno.

Her research centers on advanced materials engineering, with particular expertise in Metallurgy and Materials Science. Key focus areas include Tribology (wear mechanisms), Corrosion Science, Sintering processes, and the development of hard metal composites for industrial applications requiring high durability.

As part of CEIT's research infrastructure—a technological center collaborating closely with the University of Navarra—she contributes to materials engineering projects within multidisciplinary teams focused on materials characterization and performance optimization.
