Hello, my name is Katarína Červeňová. I am a PhD student at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Bratislava, Slovakia. My research focuses on the circular economy and methodologies for calculating the global warming potential in the building industry.

I am particularly interested in the impact that different construction materials can have on sustainability and environmental performance. With climate change becoming an increasingly important challenge, it is essential to focus on adapting building design and technologies to create more sustainable and resilient solutions.

Besides my research, I enjoy running, cycling, traveling, and good food. I am looking forward to meeting everyone in Bratislava!

Hello, my name is Mohammed Mustafa Hussein. I am a PhD student in the Department of Structural Engineering at Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) in Hungary. My research focuses on structural and earthquake engineering, with particular interest in improving the safety, resilience, and sustainability of structures under seismic loading. I am especially interested in innovative structural analysis and design approaches that can enhance the performance of buildings and infrastructure in earthquake-prone regions. Coming from Yemen and studying internationally has motivated me to contribute to engineering solutions that support safer and more sustainable communities.

With the growing challenges related to urban development and natural hazards, I believe it is essential to advance modern engineering technologies and research methodologies to create resilient and efficient structural systems for the future.

Heey! My name is Marie Odehnalová and I am a PhD student at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Brno University of Technology in the Czech Republic.

My research focuses on the environmental assessment of natural building materials, especially unfired clay, using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). I am particularly interested in evaluating both the environmental impacts of building materials, such as Global Warming Potential (GWP), and their influence on indoor environmental quality and microclimate. My work explores how natural and locally available materials can contribute to healthier, more sustainable, and low-impact buildings.

In my free time, I enjoy folklore dancing, horseback riding or just spending time in nature. I am looking forward to meeting everyone in Bratislava! 🫶

Hello everyone,

My name is Ali Satar Jaber Al-Askary, and I am a PhD student at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Department of Construction Materials and Technologies. I am originally from Iraq, where I also work as an assistant lecturer at the Middle Technical University.

My research focuses on sustainable construction materials, particularly the use of cellulose nanocrystals in cement-based materials to improve durability and long-term performance. I am very interested in environmentally friendly construction technologies, sustainable design approaches, and innovative solutions that can contribute to a greener and more resilient built environment.

I am excited to participate in the “Smart Design for a Green Future” programme because I believe it is a great opportunity to learn from different disciplines, exchange ideas with international participants, and explore new perspectives on sustainability and smart design. I am especially looking forward to teamwork, collaboration, and gaining knowledge that I can apply in both my research and future academic career.

I look forward to meeting all of you in Bratislava!

Hello everyone,

My name is Lukas, I am from Kaunas, Lithuania, currently studying Civil Engineering at the Lithuanian College of Engineering.

I am interested in engineering, construction, and developing practical solutions that improve infrastructure and everyday life. I am motivated to continue learning and gaining experience in the field of civil engineering.

I have a lot of hobbies I like fishing, hanging out with my mates, I enjoy being in nature.

Sorry for the photo that's the only one I have and for you information all of this is AIRSOFT GEAR it's my main hobby that i have been doing for the past 2 and a half years :)

Can't wait to meet you all in Bratislava.

Hi guys,

My name is Jan Moravanský, iam a Bc. student of Czech University of life sciences in Prague-Faculty of living enviroment. My programme is called landscape engeneering mainly focusing on: GIS maping and enviromental modeling, soil erosion control, soil protection and conservation, projects on revitalizing landscape and water management.

Im looking forward learning more about ecological building design as i could use these informations further in my studies or overall life.

Besides studies i love to do any kind of sport activities, cook and bake birthday cakes ;)

Im looking forward to working on this project alongside meeting new people.

See you :)

Hello! My name is Klára and I'm a PhD student at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Brno University of Technology in the Czech Republic. My research focuses on life cycle assessment of bio-based and recycled materials for latent heat thermal energy storage - basically, looking at how environmentally friendly phase change materials (PCMs) really are across their whole lifecycle, combined with experimental testing of their properties.

I'm also interested in sustainable architecture and passive houses, which I work with outside of academia.

When I'm not studying, I enjoy great coffee and food, do agility with my dog, sew my own cosplay costumes, and travel.

Looking forward to meeting you all in Bratislava!
