Biography:Jacqueline Krim
Jacqueline Krim is an American condensed matter physicist specializing in nanotribology, the study of film growth, friction, and wetting of nanoscale surfaces.[1][2] She is a Distinguished University Professor of Physics at North Carolina State University.[3]
Education and career
Krim graduated from the University of Montana in 1978 and completed a Ph.D. in experimental condensed matter physics at the University of Washington in 1984.[4] After postdoctoral research at Aix-Marseille University, she became a faculty member at Northeastern University, and moved to North Carolina State University in 1998.[3]
Recognition
Krim is a fellow of the American Vacuum Society (1999)[5] and the American Physical Society (2000).[3] The Division of Materials Physics of the American Physical Society named her as their David Adler Lecturer for 2015.[2] In 2019 she was elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science "for distinguished contributions to the understanding of atomic-scale friction, wetting and surface roughening and for exemplary efforts in scientific outreach and diversity".[6] She received a National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Award in 1986.[7][8]
