Director of Research and Development for Phoenix Industries of Las Vegas, USA

Dr. Biro joined my research team at Asphalt Rubber Technology Service (Clemson University) several years ago as a Post-Doctoral Research Scientist.  His responsibilities included performing research in the area of Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC). Dr. Biro’s technical knowledge and his contributions to this field are making enormous improvements to the technology development and practical utilization of RAC, not only as a researcher, but also as a mentor to undergraduate, graduate students, researchers and practitioners.

Further, Dr. Biro has unique multidisciplinary scientific skill sets that are needed for frontier and in-depth asphalt technology and pavement materials research and field applications. Dr. Biro has contributed significantly to the field of rubberized asphalt and on the rheological and mechanical properties of asphalt rubber. Dr. Biro’s research projects conducted at Clemson University has contributed to the body of the knowledge in this area of science.  His work has been referenced in many scientific journal papers around the country.

He was involved, while at Clemson University, with cutting edge research activities.  In this area of research, Dr. Biro conducted very high caliber of work that sets him apart from many other researchers.
