Department: Physical Chemistry
Teresa holds a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Geneva and a degree in Chemistry from the University of Valencia. Previously, she has worked as a professor of Physical Chemistry, Materials Science, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Geneva, Paris Sciences et Lettres University, and CEU Cardenal Herrera University, respectively, accumulating almost 900 hours of teaching experience. As a researcher, she has worked at the Institute of Molecular Science in Valencia, where she completed a Master's degree in Sustainable Chemistry, at the Department of Physical Chemistry at the University of Geneva, and at Chimie ParisTech thanks to a postdoctoral fellowship granted by the Swiss National Science Foundation. Her main research areas focus on switchable materials with spin transition and materials with persistent luminescence, with over 40 publications in this field, 30 of them as main author and in high-impact journals such as JACS, Small, or Advanced Functional Materials, among others. For her career path, she has received various recognitions, such as the Bachelor's Degree Mention of Honor and several grants awarded by the Academic Society of Geneva, the Swiss Chemical Society, the Ernst et Lucie Schmidheiny Foundation, or the award for best article review by Elsevier, and has given several invited talks, notably at ICFE-10 (Lausanne), PDSTM (Florida), and IWPPP-5 (Belgrade).
Teresa has also participated in various outreach activities, highlighting her role as an event coordinator at Chimiscope (University of Geneva) and Élargis tes Horizons (ETH Zurich), has co-supervised numerous Master's and PhD final projects, and has served on doctoral defense committees, acted as an examiner for university entrance exams in the Canton of Geneva, and gained extensive experience in the publishing sector as a content specialist at Frontiers Media SA. Other certificates, courses, and interests include: Advanced English (CAE) awarded by Cambridge Assessment English, DELF awarded by the French Ministry of Education, Powder Diffraction School (Paul Scherrer Institute), Photoswitch School (CNRS, France), courses in X-ray diffraction (Université de Paris) and electronic paramagnetic resonance (Chimie ParisTech), AI learning through visualization (Columbia University), environmental education and renewable energies (Nebrija University), problem-based learning (University of Deusto), emotional difficulties in the classroom (CEU-CH University), and practical application of gender equality in the field of collective bargaining (Ministry of Equality), among others.
