Prof. Amparo Galindo is a Professor of Physical Chemistry at Imperial College London's Department of Chemical Engineering, affiliated with the Institute for Molecular Science and Engineering and the Centre for Process Systems Engineering. She holds leadership roles as Co-Director of the Institute for Molecular Science and Engineering. Her work bridges statistical mechanics and industrial applications, focusing on molecular systems engineering, phase equilibria, and sustainable process design. She has held roles including EPSRC Advanced Research Fellow (2000–2005) and EU TMR Fellow (1999).
- Education: PhD in Physical Chemistry (University of Sheffield, 1996), BSc in Chemistry (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 1993)
- Affiliations: Industrial Biotechnology Hub, Imperial's Faculty of Engineering
Research interests include statistical mechanical modeling of complex systems (e.g., charged systems, polymers, liquid crystals), CO₂ capture technologies, and computer-aided solvent design. Her work emphasizes translating theoretical models into industrial tools for process optimization. Recent projects include the HiRECORD initiative for scalable CO₂ capture and pharmaceutical process design.
Awards and grants include EPSRC and EU funding. She collaborates with industry partners on topics like electrolyte solutions, drug formulation, and sustainable manufacturing. Her lab develops SAFT-γ Mie-based models for thermodynamic predictions in polymers, peptides, and electrolytes.
Key contributions span 100+ peer-reviewed articles, with recent focus on solvent design for pharmaceuticals and CO₂ capture, algorithmic optimization for bi-objective programming, and molecular modeling of complex fluids.
