Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Natalia Litchinitser. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Litchinitser holds a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology. Her primary focus is on metamaterials that manipulate the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. She began her work with metamaterials as a research scientist at the University of Michigan and joined the faculty at the University of Buffalo in 2008. Over the past decade, she has become one of the leading experts in optical metamaterials. Currently, Litchinitser’s research focuses on topological photonics, seeking to direct light around tight corners using tiny waveguides to prevent photons from scattering. She is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), a Fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA), and a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
