Award
The prolific scientific work of Dr. Paulina Szymoniak has brought to a deeper understating of the properties of thin polymer films and composite materials of industrial interest. By exploiting the synergy of dielectric spectroscopy and other experimental techniques, in a short space of time she has developed innovative strategies to disentangle and characterize the interfacial response of such complex systems.
