Dr. Nerea Casado
Dr. Nerea Casado earned her B.Sc. in Chemistry (2012) and M.Sc. in Applied Chemistry and Polymeric Materials (2013) from the University of the Basque Country, Spain. She was awarded with the Best Academic Record Award 2012 in Chemistry by Kutxa. In April 2017 she defended her PhD Thesis, entitled "Innovative Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) materials for energy storage" under the supervision of Prof. David Mecerreyes and in close collaboration with CIC EnergiGUNE center and Prof. Michel Armand. During her PhD, she made secondments on the group of Maria Forsyth at Deakin University (Australia) studying the electroactivity of polymers in ionic liquids and batteries.
