Biography

Jakob Birkedal Wagner is a Professor at the Technical University of Denmark, specializing in nanocharacterization. He is the head of the Characterization Section at DTU Nanolab, overseeing electron microscopy techniques. His research interests focus on high-resolution electron microscopy, energy-filtered imaging, and in situ electron microscopy, with a particular emphasis on the characterization of micro- and nanostructured materials. He is particularly interested in nanoscale imaging spectroscopy of nanostructured materials, studying their responses to gas, heat, and electric bias. His academic background includes a Ph.D. from the University of Copenhagen and experience as a postdoctoral researcher at Lund University and the Fritz-Haber-Institut of the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft. He has led several PhD projects in the field and is actively involved in the development of innovative techniques in microscopy and material characterization.
