Profile

Giulia Lucarelli carried out her undergraduate studies in Industrial Chemistry at University of Rome “La Sapienza”. After graduating cum laude in Material Science and Technology at University of Rome “Tor Vergata”, she obtained a Marie Curie Early Stage Researcher position at University College London, where her work was focused on the optimization and characterization of near-infrared organic photodetectors. She is currently a PhD candidate at University of Rome “Tor Vergata” working at the Center for Hybrid and Organic Solar Energy (CHOSE) on flexible and stretchable perovskite solar cells for indoor and outdoor applications.
