Biography
Xavier Obradors is a Research Professor and Director of the Institute of Materials
Science of Barcelona (CSIC). His scientific interests include materials preparation
with controlled micro/nano structures and the comprehension of the physical
mechanisms underlying the superconducting, magnetic and electronic properties
of nanostructured materials, particularly complex oxides. He has published more
than 490 articles (> 9600 citations, h=47), he has filed more than 12 patents and
he was one of the creators of the spin-off company OXOLUTIA. He has received
several awards: Fellow of Institute of Physics; Doctor Honoris Causa University
of Pitesti; ENDESA Novare and National Materials Science Awards; Member of
Academy of Sciences and Arts of Barcelona; Narcisi Monturiol Medal of Catalonia;
French Academic Palms; City of Barcelona Prize. He served as the Editorial Board
of Superconductor Science and Technology and he is Editor of Physica C. He was
President of European Society of Applied Superconductivity.
