Hubert Gasteiger

Dr. Gasteiger is a Full Professor of Electrochemistry at the Technical University of Munich. Dr. Gasteiger began his research as a Postdoctoral Fellow in 1994 on surface electrocatalysis using electron- and ion-spectroscopes, before spending four years as an Assistant Researcher at Ulm University in Germany, investigating gas-phase & electrocatalysis related to fuel cell systems. In 1999, Dr. Gasteiger moved to General Motors, to become the Technical Manager for Fuel Cell Activities, focusing on catalyst and MEA development for eight years, before moving to Acta S.p.A, where he focused on MEAs for alkaline membrane electrolyzers and fuel cells. Dr. Gasteiger later returned to academia, taking a position as a visiting Professor at MIT to study catalysis in lithium-air batteries and model oxide catalysts for fuel cells, before moving to his current position with the University of Munich. Dr. Gasteiger has over 219 research items on ResearchGate, including 15 book chapters, and 38 registered or pending patent applications, and has been the Editor-in-Chief of the Handbook of Fuel Cells.
