Early life and education
editZaumseil was born in Jena[1] and studied chemistry at Leipzig University.[citation needed] After earning her undergraduate degree, she joined Bell Labs[1] and spent a year in Murray Hill, Manhattan, before moving to the Cavendish Laboratory.[citation needed] Zaumseil earned her doctorate at the University of Cambridge, where she worked with Henning Sirringhaus on ambipolar organic field effect transistors.[2] She held a Gates Cambridge Scholarship.[3] She was a postdoctoral fellow at the Argonne National Laboratory, based in the Center for Nanoscale Materials.[4]
Research and career
editIn 2009, Zaumseil moved to the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg.[5][6] Shortly after arriving in Nuremberg she was awarded the Alfried-Krupp-Förderpreis.[1] She started to work on plasmic nano antennas that could enhance the performance of light-emitting diodes.[7] She was made a chair in physical chemistry at Heidelberg University.[5][8]
Zaumseil was awarded a European Research Council Consolidator Grant in 2018.[9]
