We would like to introduce and welcome two new Phd students to the division of Fire Safety Engineering, Joakim Åström and Arthur Rohaert.

The focus of Joakim's research will be on fire dynamics and more specifically on fires in environments with reduced oxygen. Joakim also has an interest in virtual reality in evacuation research. Joakim holds a BSc in Fire Protection Engineering and a MSc in Risk Management from Lund University. Joakim will be supervised by Prof Patrick van Hees, Dr Marcus Runefors and Dr Nils Johansson.

Arthur's PhD will be in the domain of wildfire evacuation under the supervision of Dr Enrico Ronchi, Dr Jonathan Wahlqvist and Dr Hanna Lindbom. Arthur holds a MSc in Fire Safety Engineering from the IMFSE programme jointly arranged by Ghent University, Lund University and the University of Edindburgh.

Welcome Joakim and Arthur!
