Scientist in Residence Professor John E. Bowers Programme

The Scientist in Residence for the winter term of 2015/16 has been nominated by the University Alliance Ruhr’s key program “Materials Chain”. On the occasion of the global initiative “International Year Of Light (IYL 2015)” adopted by the United Nations and on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Optoelectronics department at University Duisburg-Essen, this year’s position will be held by one of the most recognized international experts in the field of photonics, Professor John E. Bowers. He is the Director of the Institute for Energy Efficiency at the University of California, Santa Barbara and holds the Fred Kavli Chair in Nanotechnology.

Key program “Materials Chain”The University Alliance Ruhr’s key program “Materials Chain” bundles and strengthens the research activities in the field of materials science at the three universities of Dortmund, Bo-chum and Duisburg/Essen. The goal of the collaboration is to reach a complete and concise description of the whole materi-als chain – from atoms to finished technical components and vice versa.

the Scientist in Residence The Scientist in Residence is a guest professorship annually awarded by the University of Duisburg-Essen and funded by the Sparkasse Essen. It allows the University to invite leading inter-national experts for an intensive dialogue with senior as well as junior researchers. The interested public is invited to a public lecture, in which the Scientist in Residence gives fascinating insights into his field of research.
