Dr. Hartmann studied physics at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich and received his PhD from University of Stuttgart in 2005. After working three years as a Feodor-Lynen Fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation at Imperial College London he was awarded an Emmy Noether fellowship of the German Research Foundation to build up his own research group at Technical University Munich in 2008. He joined Heriot-Watt University in 2013 as an Associate Professor.
