Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdham Hashibon is a materials scientist and leader who directs the UCL Institute for Materials Discovery and holds a professorship in data-driven materials discovery at UCL, combining over two decades of research experience with senior management of interdisciplinary teams. Trained with a PhD in computational materials science from the Technion, he has advanced multiscale modelling, first-principles interface studies, and led applied research at Fraunhofer and major European institutes. He champions interoperability and standardization in materials modelling—coordinating EU initiatives like SimPhoNy and FORCE and serving on the European Materials Modelling Council management board since 2014. His current focus marries ontologies, metadata standards and materials informatics to unlock greater reuse of simulation and characterization data in industry. Known for bridging deep technical modelling with practical, cross-scale integration, he’s as comfortable designing computational frameworks as steering policy and collaborative networks that accelerate materials innovation.
