Philipp Schlatter (from Zürich, Switzerland) obtained a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zürich) in 2001, and a PhD in Fluid Mechanics at the Institute of Fluid Dynamics (IFD) from ETH in 2005. He then moved to the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, first as a Postdoc, from 2007-2010 as an assistant professor, from 2010-2018 as associate professor, and from 2019 as full professor at KTH, with special interest in large-scale simulations of turbulent flows, mainly in wall-bounded configurations. In 2014 he was chosen as a Wallenberg Academy Fellow (which was extended in 2018), a prestigious programme with 5+5 year funding. He was also the director of the Linné FLOW Centre at KTH Stockholm, leading the fluid-dynamics community in the Swedish e-Science Research Centre, and the Swedish National Allocation Committee. In 2023 he moved to the Institute of Fluid Mechanics (LSTM) at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität (FAU) Erlangen-Nürnberg. He is also adjunct professor at the University of Bologna. He is also Associate Editor of the International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow (IJHFF). The current research involves both large-scale simulations based on highly accurate spectral and spectral-element methods, but also close interaction to experimentalists in an effort to cross-validate simulation and experimental data.
