Eva Pellicer (Oliana,Lleida), is a Spanish chemistry researcher.

Biography
Eva Pellicer studied Physics and Chemistry at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. In 2005 she obtained her PhD in Chemistry within the "Materials Science and Technology" programme at the same faculty. In the same year, the University awarded her a Beatriu de Pinós grant for the incorporation of postdoctoral researchers. In 2006, she was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Electronics at the University of Barcelona. From 2007 to 2008 she worked at the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology. She has done postdoctoral research stays at Bioforsk (Norway) and ETH-Zürich. In 2018, Eva Pellicer worked as a Ramón y Cajal researcher in the Department of Physics at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

Dr. Pellicer has authored 155 articles that have received more than 2450 citations. In addition, she has given more than 40 national and international talks, including: 3DMR in 2011, ISMANAM in 2012, Thermec and ISMANAM in 2013 and 26th Deutsche Zeolith-Tagung. She was the coordinator of the European project "Development of sustainable interrelationships between education, research and innovation in WBC universities in nanotechnologies and advanced materials where innovation means business". His work at the UAB focuses on teaching in the "Nanoscience and Nanotechnology" degree and on the coordination activities in the official master's degree programme "Nanotechnology and Materials Science". She also supervises the doctoral theses of six students and the work of four doctoral candidates.

Internationally, she is director of the SELECTA European training network and principal investigator of the mCBEE European Training Network, a project of the National Research Programme on Societal Challenges. She was vice-chair of the European e-MINDS COST action in the field of electroplating and miniaturisation.

Her lines of research in 2018 revolve around the synthesis of multifunctional metal films, foams and micro/nanostructures by electrochemical methods and of ordered mesoporous metal oxides and nanocomposites by wet chemistry procedures.
