Ulrike Kramm
Dr. Ulrike Kramm is Full-Professor of Catalysts and Electrocatalysts at TU Darmstadt since 2020. Her research focuses on the development and characterization of sustainable electrocatalysts, particularly for fuel cell and electrolysis research. She did her PhD with distinction at the TU Berlin together with HZB Berlin. Ulrike Kramm is considered a leading expert in the identification of active sites in metal-nitrogen-modified carbon catalysts (MNC). She has established in situ and operando Mössbauer spectroscopy as a crucial tool for directly observing the dynamics of catalyst centers during chemical reactions.
Since 2022, she has been the spokesperson for the Collaborative Research Center 1487 "Iron, upgraded!”, a DFG funded project that chemically modifies iron to make it applicable for new technologies. Her research has been recognized with several prestigious awards, including the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Prize (2020), and the Curious Mind Award in the Energy and Mobility category (2019).
