ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my tutors, Stefano Milani, Pierre Jennen, and Marc Schoonderbeek, for giving me the opportunity to research something so captivating and for their invaluable guidance, insight, and support throughout this project.
A special thank you goes to my colleagues for all the talks and long hours we shared in the studio, as well as for making our trip to Chongqing truly unforgettable.
I am also grateful to Leo, who patiently read through my work to make sure it made sense and listened to my presentation rehearsals far more times than he should have.
