Dr. Md. K. Nazeeruddin received M.Sc. and Ph. D. in inorganic chemistry from Osmania University, Hyderabad, India. He
joined as a Lecturer in Deccan College of Engineering and Technology, Osmania University in 1986, and subsequently, moved
to Central Salt and Marine Chemicals Research Institute, Bhavnagar, as a Research Associate. He was awarded the
Government of India’s fellowship in 1987 for study abroad. After one year postdoctoral stay with Prof. Graetzel at Swiss
federal institute of technology Lausanne (E P F L), he joined the same institute as a Senior Scientist. His current research
focuses on Dye-sensitized solar cells, Hydrogen production, Light-emitting diodes and Chemical sensors. He has published
more than 200 peer-reviewed papers, nine book chapters, and inventor of 21 patents. The high impact of his work has been
recognized with invitations to speak at over 50 international conferences, including the MRS Fall Meeting (USA, 2006), and
has been nominated to the OLLA International Scientific Advisory Board. He appeared in the ISI listing of most cited chemists,
and has more than 11500 citations with an h-index of 53. He is teaching "Functional Materials" course at EPFL, and Korea
University; directing, and managing several industrial, national, and European Union projects on Hydrogen energy,
Photovoltaics (DSC), and Organic Light Emitting Diodes. He was awarded EPFL Excellence prize in 1998 and 2006, Brazilian
FAPESP Fellowship in 1999, Japanese Government Science & Technology Agency Fellowship, in 1998, Government of India
National Fellowship in 1987-1988. Recently he has been appointed as World Class University (WCU) professor for the period
of March 1, 2009 ~ December 31, 2012 by the Korea University, Jochiwon, Korea.
