= Kathleen Stebe = Dr. Kathleen Stebe is a scientist with areas of expertise in Nanostructured Materials, as well as Surface and Colloidal Science. She is also a Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at The University of Pennsylvania.

Education
Kathleen studied Economics at The City College of New York as an undergraduate. She graduated with a BA in Economics in 1984. Following graduation she began studying in a PhD program at The City University of New York. She completed this program in 1989, obtaining her MSE and PhD in Chemical Engineering under the guidance of Charles Maldarelli.

Career and Research
After graduation from her PhD program, Kathleen spent a year in Compiegne, France under Dominique Barthes Biesel. Following her time in France, she became an Assistant Professor of John Hopkins University in 1991. In 1996 Stebe was promoted to an Associate Professor, and in 2000 she was given the title of Professor of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at John Hopkins University where she stayed until 2008. After leaving John Hopkins, Stebe took on the role of Department Chair of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at The University of Pennsylvania. In 2008 she became the Goodwin Professor of Engineering and Applied Science, and in 2012 she was awarded the position of Deputy Dean for Research in the School of Engineering and Applied Science, both positions she still holds today. Dr. Stebe's research is mainly focused on directed assembly in soft matter. Another primary research interests is non-equilibrium interfaces, with applications ranging from microfluidics to nanotechnology from an engineering viewpoint.
