Professor Eimutis Juzeliunas is the principal research associate and head of the Department of Electrochemical Materials Science at the Centre for Physical Sciences and Technology in Vilnius, Lithuania. Prior to these positions, he was the rector of Klaipeda University (2014-2018) and the director of the Institute of Chemistry (2001-2009) in Lithuania. From 2009 to 2014, he was a Marie Curie Intra-European and International fellow at the University of Cambridge, UK. His main research topics include: electrochemical materials science, silicon electrochemistry for energy applications, corrosion of metals, surface technologies. He published 116 papers in peer-reviewedjournals, holds two patents and reported orally in 40 international conferences. He received research fellowships from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (DECHEMA, Germany 1995-1997), the American Chemical Society (Pennsylvania StateUniversity, USA 2001-2002), the Fulbright Programme (Vanderbilt University, USA 2009-2010) and the Commission of the European Communities, Marie Curie actions (the University of Cambridge, UK 2009-2010; 2013-2014).
