Felix Warmer

Prof. Dr. Felix Warmer is an Assistant Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU Eindhoven) and leads the Stellarator Reactor Studies (SRS) research group at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) in Greifswald. He holds a dual role, teaching at TU Eindhoven while conducting advanced fusion energy research at IPP.

• Current Affiliation: Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Greifswald (Head of SRS Group)
• Academic Position: Assistant Professor, Eindhoven University of Technology
• Teaching: Courses include 'Fusion on the Back of an Envelope' and 'Design of a Fusion Power Plant'

His educational journey began with a master's thesis at IPP Greifswald, followed by doctoral research culminating in a PhD from the Technical University of Berlin in 2016. He was awarded a prestigious Feodor Lynen Research Fellowship, enabling research at Japan's National Institute for Fusion Science.

Felix Warmer's research is centered on the scientific and engineering design of stellarator-based fusion power plants. He develops innovative physical and engineering models to simulate fusion reactor components and validates these using experimental data from the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator. His work bridges theoretical modeling with real-world experimental verification, contributing to the advancement of magnetic confinement fusion technology.

Although no specific recent publications are listed in the provided text, his leadership of a dedicated research group and active teaching role indicate a strong and ongoing research trajectory in fusion energy systems.
