Biography
Dr. Claudiane Ouellet-Plamondon is a professor in the Department of Construction Engineering at the École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS) in Montreal, and member of the Université du Québec network since 2014. She holds the Canada Research Chair in Sustainable Multifunctional Construction Materials. She received a bachelor of biological engineering from Dalhousie University, a master's degree in biological sciences from Université de Montreal, and a PhD in engineering from the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. She was a postdoctoral fellow at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, and a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley during her sabbatical leave. Her research focuses on functional materials, robotic 3D printing of low carbon mortars, bio-based materials, wood and earth construction, valorization of industrial by-products in cement, concrete and other value-added materials, sustainable materials for a circular economy, and modelling of materials with artificial intelligence. She enjoys interdisciplinary research on the sustainability of buildings and cities, materials and arts, adaptation and mitigation of climate change, and the ecological transition. Her team includes Master and PhD students, research assistants, and postdoctoral fellows.
