He obtained his PhD in the same university in 2002. He worked for three years and a half in Lea-Artibai Ikastetxea teaching in "Polymer Engineering" for North London University and in November of 2002 started as Associate Professor at the University of the Basque Country. Research Dr. Guerrica-Echevarria develops his research activity in the field of the processing-structure-properties relationship of thermoplastic materials, specifically in the field of polymer blends, including reactive processing, filled and reinforced polymers. He has experience in several polymer processing techniques (blending, extrusion, injection molding…), and also in the physical (DSC, DMTA, SEM,.) and mechanical (tensile, flexure, impact testing, ...) characterization of these materials. Publications Dr. Guerrica-Echevarria has published near 20 articles in international journals and several contributions in different conferences and meetings G. Guerrica-Echevarría, J. I.
