The RedOx Science Club invites you to a lecture by Dr. Maryna Meretska, a group leader of the Optical Metasurfaces at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany. During the talk entitled "My journey through life and academia" Dr Meretska will share her scientific path - from research on LEDs to establishing her research group, developing modern optical technologies based on metasurfaces.
Dr. Meretska graduated in quantum informatics from the Delft University of Technology and obtained her PhD in 2018 from the University of Twente, where she researched innovative white LED technologies. Then, thanks to the prestigious Rubicon scholarship, she joined a research team at Harvard University in Cambridge (USA). In 2024, she became the winner of the Emmy Noether grant, which allowed her to establish her research group at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany.
Her research interests focus on the use of advanced computational methods for designing and modelling optical nanostructures and meta-optical devices. She combines theory with engineering skills, using modern nanofabrication technologies to create passive and active metasurfaces. She is the author of numerous publications in prestigious scientific journals, such as Science, Nature Photonics and Nature Communications - including compact optical metasurfaces for detecting CO₂ concentration.
