Doreen Mollenhauer

Prof. Dr. Doreen Mollenhauer serves as a Professor at Friedrich Schiller University Jena through a joint appointment with the Helmholtz Institute for Polymers in Energy Applications (HIPOLE), a collaboration between the university and Helmholtz Center Berlin for Materials and Energy (HZB). She is based in the Institute of Technical Chemistry and Environmental Chemistry within the university's research ecosystem.

Her research centers on computational simulation of polymers for next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies. This work integrates molecular modeling with materials engineering to develop advanced polymers for batteries, fuel cells, and solar energy systems. The research bridges theoretical chemistry and practical energy applications, addressing critical challenges in sustainable power solutions.

Prof. Mollenhauer's working group operates from Jena's new CEEC research complex (Center for Energy and Environmental Chemistry), which features state-of-the-art laboratories for collaborative energy materials research. Her dual affiliation with HIPOLE creates unique opportunities for students to access both academic and large-scale national laboratory resources.
