Early life and education edit

Reich attended the Technical University of Berlin where she studied physics. She earned her undergraduate and master's diplomas in 1998, before embarking on a doctoral programme.[1] After a year as a research assistant, Reich moved to the Institut de Ciència de Materials de Barcelona. In 2002 she was made a Fellow of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities.

Research and career edit

In 2003 Reich moved to the University of Cambridge as an Oppenheimer Research Fellow. Whilst at Cambridge she held a joint position at Newnham College, Cambridge.[2] She started to work on the characterisation of graphene, In 2007 Reich was appointed Professor of the Physics of Nanostructures at the Free University of Berlin.[3][2] When she arrived at the Free University of Berlin she was awarded a European Research Council (ERC) starting grant, which was later upgraded to a Consolidator Grant. Reich focusses on one dimensional nanostructures, including graphene, semiconductor nanowires and carbon nanotubes.[4]
