About this site

👋 Hi, I’m Piet Dimitriadis—a full-stack software engineer turned mycelium cultivator, currently undertaking a PhD in bioprocess engineering at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. My research explores how fungi can be harnessed to grow sustainable materials, particularly through novel bioreactor designs.

Wikipietia is my digital workshop: part blog, part thought repository, part place-to-dump-cool-things-I’m-learning. It’s where I connect dots between disciplines—science, software, design, and engineering—and occasionally ramble about whatever rabbit hole I’ve fallen into this week.

I have a formal background in chemical engineering and chemistry, and a growing love for biology thanks to the fungi I work with. I’ve built web apps, lab rigs, 3D prints, Arduino projects, and everything in between.

Welcome to my corner of the internet.
