The two-day program included a seminar "Bio-inspiration & Biomimetics in Fluid Mechanics" (Arman Hemmati) intended for bachelor and master students and a seminar "Data-Driven 3D Printing of High-Performance Metallic and Ceramic Materials" (Mostafa Yakout) for PhD. students, researchers and teachers. The program then continued with a presentation of the Advanced Technologies Research Institute (Assoc. Prof. Ing. Róbert Riedlmajer, PhD; Ing. Dušan Vaňa, PhD.), the Institute of Materials (doc. Ing.
