Paraskevi (Evi) Flouda

Evi Flouda joined the Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering at the University of Arizona as an assistant professor in 2023. Her research interests lie at the intersection of the different materials science and chemical engineering fields to holistically address energy storage and sustainability issues. Prior to joining UA, she completed her postdoctoral work at the Georgia Institute of Technology (GaTech) in the lab of Prof. Vladimir V. Tsukruk, where she worked on ionic hyperbranched polymers and their applications. In 2021, Evi received her PhD in materials science and engineering from Texas A&M (TAMU). At TAMU, she worked under the supervision of Prof. Jodie J. Lutkenhaus and Prof. Dimitris C. Lagoudas. Her doctoral research focused on the development of nanocomposite electrodes for structural energy storage. She received her undergraduate diploma in materials science and engineering from the University of Ioannina in Greece in 2016. For her efforts, she has received several awards and was named a 2022 ACS PMSE Future Faculty Scholar.
