Function
Sandrine Lyonnard is currently Research Director (equ. Full Prof) at CEA in Grenoble and deputy head of the Functional Materials Synthesis, Structure and Properties (STEP) lab gathering 20 permanent staff researchers on energy topics, from photovoltaics to fuel cells and batteries. She is a soft matter physicist specialized in the study of structure-transport interplay in nanostructured, hierarchical and ionic materials. Her research is dedicated to the development of scattering, imaging and spectroscopic ex-situ, in-situ and operando techniques at Large Scale Facilities for the characterization of fuel cell and battery components and systems. She is involved in european large scale initiatives as Battery2030+/BIGMAP and Grenoble Battery HUB, as well as french long-term strategic programs PEPR on Hydrogen and Batteries. She served or is serving in various boards and panels at LSFs, Institut Laue Langevin (Grenoble, France), ISIS (UK), ESRF (Grenoble, France), MZL Centrum (Munich, Germany), SOLEIL (France).
