Annika Bach

Annika Bach is an Assistant Professor in the Applied Analysis group of the Centre for Analysis, Scientific Computing and Applications (CASA) at Eindhoven University of Technology. She holds an MSc and MEd in Mathematics from the University of Münster (2015) and a PhD from the same university (2018). She previously held postdoctoral positions at TU Munich (2018-2021) and Sapienza University of Rome (2021-2023).

Her research focuses on the Calculus of Variations, particularly the asymptotic analysis of multi-scale variational problems with applications in computer vision and materials science. Specific areas include phase-field models for free-discontinuity problems, stochastic homogenization, and dislocation models.
