Tommaso Ristori

Tommaso Ristori is an Assistant Professor at the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Biomedical Engineering Department, focusing on computational modeling and experimental validation of sprouting angiogenesis and mechanobiology to advance tissue regeneration therapies.

• Received joint MSc in Mathematics and Mathematical Engineering (Florence, Madrid)
• PhD in Biomedical Engineering (TU/e, 2018) on cell-mediated collagen remodeling

His research integrates multiscale computational models with 2D/3D cell culture to study Notch signaling, cell-cell communication, and strain-mediated vascular remodeling. Key themes include angiogenesis control, regenerative medicine, and mechanosensitive pathways.

Recent articles demonstrate expertise in Notch-driven angiogenesis modeling, YAP/TAZ mechanoregulation, and ligand-patterned vascular control. His work aligns with UN SDGs for healthcare innovation and sustainable bioengineering.

• Scientific Award: ESB Best Doctoral Thesis Award (2019)

Grants include NWO Rubicon and Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowships. Collaborations span Boston University, Abo Akademi University, and 4TU.Centre for Research Data.
