Beatriz Eguzkitza received her undergraduate degree in Physics from the Universitat de Barcelona. She pursued a master’s degree in Renewable Energies Engineering and Management at the Institut Català de Tecnologia and obtained a PhD in Computer Architecture (with a focus on Numerical Methods) from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). Since 2014, she has been a postdoctoral researcher at BSC, focusing on data-driven techniques for complex problems solved on supercomputers. Her work primarily revolves around fluid mechanics in the respiratory system, where she studies topics such as Lagrangian particle transport for inhalers and nebulisers, particle deposition maps, nasal valve interaction, coupling 3D-1D, and mucus layers. Since 2017, she has been involved as a researcher in four projects with companies in the biomedical sector and academic institutions. She serves as the principal investigator for a National Project titled “DREAMS: Particle Deposition Computational Model for Children’s Airways with Mucus Surface”.
