Professor Sergio Lozano-Perez
Professor of Materials, Oxford University

As Professor of Materials in Oxford University, Sergio is responsible for the NanoAnalysis group.

His group’s research makes use of state-of-the-art facilities, characterization techniques and novel data analysis routines to push the understanding of materials properties through high-resolution characterization. His group has worked in the area of environmental degradation of nuclear reactors for over 20 years, with an excellent track record. His work is internationally recognized for initiating the NanoSIMS, atom-probe and electron microscopy characterization of radiation damage, environmental cracking and surface oxidation at the highest levels of resolution. Current projects on nuclear materials are in collaboration with EDF, INSS, CNL or Westinghouse. He has published more than 150 papers and currently holds several EPRSC and industrial grants.
