Konstantin V. Tretiakov graduated summa cum laude in Industrial Electronics from the Pavel Sukhoi State Technical University of Gomel (Gomel, Belarus) in 1994. He received his Ph.D. degree in Physics from the Institute of Molecular Physics Polish Academy of Sciences (Poznan, Poland) in 2000. He is a recipient of the 2000 Institute of Molecular Physics Award for Ph.D. dissertation. In 2002-2004, Dr. Tretiakov was a Postdoctoral Fellow (with Prof. S. Scandolo) in the Condensed Matter and Statististical Physics Section at the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (Trieste, Italy). In 2007-2009, Dr. Tretiakov worked with Prof. B. Grzybowski in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Northwestern University (Evanston IL, USA). In 2011, Dr. Tretiakov earned his habilitation in Physics at the Institute of Molecular Physics Polish Academy of Sciences (Poznan, Poland). Since 2014 he is Associate Professor of Department of Computational Physics of Complex Systems in the Institute of Molecular Physics Polish Academy of Sciences and a member of Scientific Council of the Institute of Molecular Physics. He is a recipient of the Award of Minister of Science and Higher Education for a significant achievement in scientific activity in 2019. He specializes in statistical physics and computer simulation of many body systems, with research focusing on non-equilibrium self-assembling systems, transport properties of soft-matter, elastic properties of solids in particular materials exhibiting negative Poisson's ratio. Since 2021 he is a member of the editorial board of Computational Methods in Science and Technology.
