Bio sketch
Beatriz Noheda (she/her) is full Professor at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands, where she chairs the Nanostructures of Functional Oxides group, at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials. She is married and has two children.

Noheda arrived in Groningen in 2004 after being awarded a Rosalind Franklin Fellowship. Before that, she had been Assistant Physicist (tenure-track) at the Physics Department in Brookhaven National Laboratory (New York), and as beamline scientist at the NSLS synchrotron. Noheda had also held various research stays and positions at University of Saarlandes, Clarendon Laboratory in Oxford and Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, after receiving her PhD in Physics from the UAM in Madrid (1996).

Noheda is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and recipient of the IEEE- Robert E. Newnham Ferroelectrics Award. She has been elected member of the Netherlands Academy of Technology and Innovation (AcTI, the Dutch Academy of Enginneering)  and has served as member of numerous national and international  committees, as well as of several editorial boards. She is author of more than 150 publications, receives more than 10 personal invitations per year to speak in international conferences and has given more than 10 plenary and keynote talks.
