Biography

Dr. Pozo-Gonzalo attained her Degree and honours in the University of Zaragoza (Spain). After graduating, she received her PhD degree in Chemistry from the University of Manchester (United Kingdom) working with Prof. Peter J. Skabara on the electrochemical synthesis of Conducting Polymers. From 2004, she joined the Centre for Electrochemical Technologies in San Sebastian, (Spain) as the head of electrooptical unit where she stayed for 7 years, managing a total of 23 projects. After moving to Australia, she has been working with Prof. Alan Bond at Monash University and in 2012 she joined Prof. Maria Forsyth at Deakin University where she has been working in the reversible metal air battery team working with advanced electrolytes, ionic liquids funded by ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES).
During her research career, she has authored and co-authored  79 peer-review international publications, two book chapters and holds 3 patents. She has also supervised 17 international undergraduates and graduates.
