Jenny Nelson

Imperial College London, UK

Jenny Nelson is a Professor of Physics at Imperial College London, where she has researched novel varieties of material for use in solar cells since 1989. Her current research is focussed on understanding the properties of molecular semiconductor materials and their application to organic solar cells. This work combines fundamental electrical, spectroscopic and structural studies of molecular electronic materials with numerical modelling and device studies, with the aim of optimising the performance of solar cells based on molecular and hybrid materials.

Since 2010 she has been working together with the Grantham Institute for Climate Change to explore the mitigation potential of photovoltaic and other renewable, technologies. She has published over 200 articles in peer-reviewed journals, several book chapters and a book on the physics of solar cells. She was awarded the 2009 Institute of Physics Joule Prize and medal and the 2012 Royal Society Armourers and Brasiers Company Prize for her research.

Research areas:

  • Multi-scale modelling of molecular electronic materials
  • Device physics of organic and hybrid solar cells
  • Electronic, spectroscopic and structural characterisation of molecular electronic materials
  • Mitigation potential of solar photovoltaic technology

William Chueh

Stanford University, USA

Will Chueh is an Associate Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and in the Department of Energy Science & Engineering, a Senior Fellow of the Precourt Institute for Energy at Stanford University, and a faculty scientist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. He leads a group of more than thirty researchers tackling the fundamentals of redox and electrochemical processes in the solid state. Additionally, he directs Stanford's StorageX Initiative that builds academic-industrial partnerships to accelerate the electrification of transportation and the penetration of intermittent renewable electricity in energy systems. He received his BS in applied physics, and his MS and PhD in materials science from Caltech. Prior to joining Stanford in 2012, he was a Distinguished Truman Fellow at Sandia National Laboratories. Chueh has received numerous honors, including the Humboldt’s Bessel Award (2021), MRS Outstanding Young Investigator Award (2018), Volkswagen/BASF Science Award Electrochemistry (2016), Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award (2016), Sloan Research Fellowship (2016), NSF CAREER Award (2015), Solid State Ionics Young Scientist Award (2013), Caltech Demetriades-Tsafka-Kokkalis Prize in Energy (2012), and the American Ceramics Society Diamond Award (2008). In 2012, he was named as one of the “Top 35 Innovators Under the Age of 35” by MIT’s Technology Review.

The Chueh group’s research are rooted in fundamental questions that underlie materials for energy storage and transformation:

  • Understanding solid-state, redox and defect chemistries in ionic conductors, especially the local chemistry induced by disorder
  • Probing dynamics and heterogeneities across atomic, mesoscopic and device scales through characterization and modeling.
  • Controlling ionic and electronic transport by tuning materials chemistry 

Linda Nazar

University of Waterloo, Canada

ORCiD 0000-0002-3314-8197

Professor Nazar was educated at UBC and the University of Toronto where she received her Ph.D. degree in materials chemistry. She moved to Exxon Corporate Research to take up a Postdoctoral Fellowship. In 1987 she joined the Chemistry Department at the University of Waterloo, where she initiated her independent academic career. She was promoted to full professor in 2000 and established the Laboratory for Electrochemical Energy Materials.  She has been an invited professor at the IMN/Université de Nantes, the Materials Science department in UCLA, the CNRS in Grenoble, France; and at Caltech as a Moore Distinguished Scholar (Dept of Materials Science) in 2010. 

Dr. Nazar has achieved international recognition as a leader in the areas of solid state chemistry, electrochemistry, energy storage and materials science.  She has co-authored over 245 publications garnering over 50,000 citations and an H-index of 106.  She has also published 20 patents/patent applications. Dr. Nazar has presented her work in over 200 invited distinguished lectures, colloquia and seminars around the globe. She is listed in the 2014, 2016 and 2017 Highly Cited Research List (WoS), and the 2014 Web of Science’s Most Influential Scientific Minds.

Dr. Nazar is the recipient of several academic and professional honours and awards. She was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society (London) in 2020, of the Royal Society of Canada in 2012, and an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2015.  Other awards include the Electrochemistry Society Battery Division Research award (2009), the International Battery Association award (2011), the IUPAC Distinguished Women in Chemistry/Chemical Engineering award (2011), the August-Wilhelm-von-Hofman Lecture award (German Chemical Society, 2013), the International Automotive Lithium Battery award (2017).  


Karen Wilson

RMIT University, Australia

ORCiD: 0000-0003-4873-708X

Karen Wilson is Professor of Catalysis in the School of Science at RMIT University, Melbourne, and a Distinguished Visiting Professor at Zhengzhou University, China. Prior to this, she was a Chair of Catalysis and Research Director of the European Bioenergy Research Institute at Aston University, UK, where she also held a prestigious Royal Society Industry Fellowship in collaboration with Johnson Matthey. Karen holds a BA(Hons) and PhD from the University of Cambridge, an MSc in heterogeneous catalysis from the University of Liverpool, and has also held academic positions at the University of York and Cardiff University. Her research focusses on the development of tunable porous heterogeneous catalysts for use in green and sustainable chemistry, and the valorisation of waste bio-derived feedstocks for biofuels and chemicals production. She has published >250 peer-reviewed articles in heterogeneous catalysis, porous materials, green chemistry and surface chemistry.
