Eva Y. Andrei is an Israeli-American condensed matter physicist, currently a Distinguished Professor and Board of Governors Professor at Rutgers University. Her research focuses on emergent properties of matter arising from collective behavior of many particles, especially low-dimensional phenomena under low temperatures and high magnetic fields.

Education and training
Andrei received her bachelor's degree from the Tel Aviv University and her Ph.D. from Rutgers University. She then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Bell Labs.

Career
Andrei began her independent career in 1987 as an assistant professor at Rutgers. One of her first major contributions was establishing the existence of a Wigner solid in a 2D electron plasma. More recently she has made major contributions to the study of graphene, including detection of ballistic transport of charge carriers and the discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect in graphene.
