Torsten Hädrich

I am a Co-founder of GreenMatterAI and PhD graduate from KAUST, where I joined the Computational Sciences Group of the Visual Computing Center (VCC). My research interests are the physically-based simulation of natural phenomena and interactive modeling approaches in the field of Computer Graphics. Before, I obtained my MSc. (Information Engineering) degree from the University of Konstanz and BSc. (Computer Science and Media) degree from the Stuttgart Media University.
