Welcome to the newest FAU EAM member Prof. Dr. Simon Thiele

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Simon Thiele studied physics at the University of Freiburg. In 2009 he started a PhD on the tomographic reconstruction of catalyst layers for proton exchange membrane fuel cells at the Institute of Microsystems Technology of the University of Freiburg which he completed in 2013. From 2011 until 2017 he was group leader of the junior research group ‘porous media’ at the same institute. Since 2018 he is leader of the Electrocatalytic Interface Engineering research department at the Helmholtz-Institut Erlangen-Nürnberg für Erneuerbare Energien. Also, since 2018 he is a professor at the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the Technical Faculty of the FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. His research focuses on novel concepts for electrochemical conversion devices such as batteries, fuel cells or electrolysers.
