Biography
Dr. Sara Cavaliere has been assistant professor at the University of Montpellier in the Laboratory for Aggregates, Interfaces and Materials for Energy–Charles Gerhardt Institute for Molecular Chemistry and Materials since 2009. After graduating in chemistry from the University of Milan, Italy, she received her Ph.D. in chemistry and materials science in 2006 in Versailles, France. She carried out postdoctoral research work at the University of Freiburg, Germany, and the University of Lyon, France. In 2012, she was awarded an ERC starting grant (project SPINAM) on the use of electrospinning for the elaboration of integrated membrane-electrode assemblies for energy devices. Her research interests focus on the design and preparation of nanostructured and nanofibrous materials for energy conversion and storage applications.
"… a comprehensive view of the application areas of electrospun fibers in energy and environment. A timely, much-needed book on an important subject; a must read for all working in this field and application areas."
—Erich Kny, Chair of COST MP1206 on Electrospinning
