Small Solutions For Big Problems...

Image source: National Physical Laboratory
Topics: Carbon Nanotubes, Diversity, Diversity in Science, Engineering Physics, Materials Science, Nanotechnology, Semiconductor Technology, Women in Science

Stephanie Moroz and I share the same background in Engineering Physics and both in the same industry at the moment (she has extensive experience in other areas as well, and I'm not a CEO). She gives an excellent primer presentation at TEDx:


What is nanotechnology? Stephanie Moroz explores some of the ways that designing materials at an incredibly small scale can address global challenges in fields such as energy, medicine and electronics.

Stephanie Moroz is the CEO of Nano-Nouvelle, a Sunshine Coast company developing high-performance battery electrodes. Her international career has been dedicated to commercializing new technologies, particularly in the areas of energy efficiency and nanomaterials.

Stephanie is a truly global citizen. With her education in engineering physics, she has worked in Canada and then Germany where she led the integration of hydrogen fuel cells into the Mercedes F-CELL vehicle. From there she moved to France, developing systems to reduce the pollution generated by conventional vehicles. Finally, she was lured to Australia by opportunities in nanotechnology: first in solid-state hydrogen storage and now innovative battery materials at Nano-Nouvelle.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
