Antonie Bierling M. Sc.

Research Associate

Antonie Bierling studied psychology in Dresden. Since 2020, she has been researching the fundamentals of olfactory perception as part of her doctorate in order to make this knowledge usable for the construction of electronic noses in the future. To this end, she is involved in the "Perceptronics" and "smellodi" projects, which, among other things, bring together the disciplines of materials science, medicine and psychology in cooperation with the TU Dresden. In her free time, she enjoys cooking, traveling and photography.
