Professor Anna Fontcuberta i Morral from the Laboratory of Semiconductor Materials at EPFL in Switzerland joins STEMoirs. We hear about her journey from growing up in the outskirts of Barcelona, her time in Paris and Pasadena, and now about her work in Lausanne, Switzerland. She tells us about where her inspirations for material growth come from, and what it takes to persevere through those difficult periods when experiments—and life—don't always go how you planned.
Follow her on Twitter @i_morral and find her publications on Google Scholar.
She was featured by EPFL as "Woman Scientist of the Month", and you can read her interview here and watch another (if you're French is good enough) here on Youtube.
