Biography

Kornelius Nielsch has been director of the Institute for Metallic Materials (IMW) at the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden (IFW) since 2015, where he leads a research group working at the interface of design and synthesis of thermoelectric, superconducting, magnetic and quantum materials. Prof. Nielsch received his diploma in physics from the University of Duisburg in 1997 and his Ph.D. in physics from Martin Luther University Halle/Wittenberg, Germany, in 2002. From 2002 to 2003, Kornelius Nielsch was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT before taking up the position of group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Microstructure Physics in Halle, Germany, in 2003. Soon after, he moved to the Institute of Applied Physics at the University of Hamburg, where he was Professor of Experimental Physics from 2007 to 2015.
