Serena Corr
I am a postdoctoral fellow in the
Materials Research Laboratory with Prof. Ram Seshadri, where I study
vanadium oxide nanostructures. Before arriving in UC Santa Barbara, I completed my Ph.D in Chemistry at the
University of Dublin, Trinity College, under the supervision of
Prof. Yurii Gun'ko.
