Eva Blasco

Eva Blasco is an Associated Group Leader at the Functional Polymeric Materials Research Unit under the Institute of Nanotechnology at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), with affiliations to the University of Heidelberg. Her work bridges 3D printing, polymer chemistry, and nanophotonics, focusing on light-driven material design.

Her research centers on photochemically activated 3D printing inks, light-stabilized dynamic materials, and multi-photon lithography. She explores how two-color light absorption, alkoxyamine chemistry, and visible light post-processing enable adaptable microstructures. Key trends include 4D printing, biodegradable inks, and temperature/light-responsive systems.

Blasco's publications highlight collaborations with institutions like KIT, University of Heidelberg, and international teams. Her work spans photonic metamaterials, bio-inspired 3D scaffolds, and subtractive laser lithography, often involving interdisciplinary applications of light in material science.
