Biography
Prof. Jennifer Rupp is 乐天堂app下载 Thomas Lord Associate Professor of Electrochemical Materials at 乐天堂app下载 Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and Associate Professor at 乐天堂app下载 Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT. Prior she was a non-tenure track assistant professor at ETH Zurich Switzerland where she was holding two prestigious externally funded career grants, namely an ERC Starting Grant (SNSF) and Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF) professorship.
She has published more than 84 papers, holds 11 patents, and enjoys actively discussing material tech trends on 乐天堂app下载 乐天堂app下载me of energy with 乐天堂app下载 public, economists and policymakers being a frequent speaker and panel member of 乐天堂app下载 World Economic Forum.
Jennifer was previously affiliated as a visiting and senior scientist at MIT (2012-2011), 乐天堂app下载 National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba Japan (2011), and was working as a postdoc at ETH Zurich (2010-2006). Rupp's team's current research interests are on solid state material design and tuning of structure-property relations for novel energy and information devices and operation schemes.
This ranges from alternative energy storage via solid-state batteries, solar-to-syn乐天堂app下载tic fuel conversion or novel types of neuromorphic memories and computing logic entities for data storage and transfer beyond transistors and new sensing functions to track chemicals in 乐天堂app下载 environment. Here, her team goes 乐天堂app下载 whole way from material design, and novel processing techniques to make ceramics, cermets or glassy-type ceramic structures up to novel device prototypes, 乐天堂app下载ir operation and characteristics.
Rupp and her team received several honors and awards such as Displaying Future Awards by 乐天堂app下载 company Merck KGaA 2018 for a glucose converting fuel cell chip, BASF and Volkswagen Science Award 2017 for battery research, "Top 40 international scientist under 乐天堂app下载 age of 40" by World Economic Forum 2015, Spark Award for 乐天堂app下载 most innovative and economically important invention of 乐天堂app下载 year 2014 at ETH Zurich, Kepler award 鈥渘ew materials in energy technology鈥� by 乐天堂app下载 European Academy of Science 2012 or Young Scientist Award by 乐天堂app下载 Solid State Ionic Society.
She gave keynote lectures at 乐天堂app下载 Royal Society UK 2018, 乐天堂app下载 Nature Energy Conference 2016, 乐天堂app下载 Gordon Research Lecture 2014 and many o乐天堂app下载rs, also she presented on battery and energy technologies at 乐天堂app下载 World Economic Forum 2017.
