Nicola Spaldin Awarded Carus Medal by Leopoldina
Professor Nicola Spaldin, head of the Materials Theory group and a pioneer in multiferroic materials, will receive the prestigious Carus Medal from the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.
The Leopoldina honors ETH Zurich Professor Nicola Spaldin for her groundbreaking research in the field of multiferroics—materials that exhibit both ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties.
Her work has laid the theoretical foundation for this class of materials, enabling scientists worldwide to explore their potential in areas ranging from nanoelectronics to cosmology. The Carus Medal will be awarded to her on May 22 in Schweinfurt.
