Dr. Yury Gogotsi is Professor of Materials Science and
Engineering at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He
also holds appointments in the Departments of Chemistry and
Mechanical Engineering at Drexel University and serves as Director
of the A.J. Drexel Nanotechnology Institute and Associate Dean of
the College of Engineering. He received his MS (1984) and PhD
(1986) degrees from Kiev Polytechnic and a DSc degree from the
Institute of Materials Science, Ukrainian Academy of Science, in
1995.
His research group works on carbon nanotubes, nanoporous
carbide-derived carbons, and nanofluidics. He has also contributed
to the areas of structural ceramics, corrosion of ceramic
materials, and pressure-induced phase transformations, creating a
new research field called High Pressure Surface Science and
Engineering. He has co-authored two books, edited nine books,
obtained more than 20 patents and authored about 200 journal papers
and a dozen of book chapters. He has advised a large number of MS,
PhD and post-doctoral students at Drexel University and University
of Illinois at Chicago. Gogotsi has received several awards for his
research including I.N. Frantsevich Prize from the Ukrainian
Academy of Science, S. Somiya Award from the International Union of
Materials Research Societies, G.C. Kuczynski Prize from the
International Institute for the Science of Sintering, and Roland B.
Snow Award from the American Ceramic Society (twice). He has been
elected a Fellow of the American Ceramic Society, Academician of
the World Academy of Ceramics, and Full Member of the International
Institute for the Science of Sintering.
