Gwenaëlle Rousse

Gwenaëlle Rousse serves as an Associate Professor at Collège de France since 2013 within the CNRS Research Federation 3677 Chair of Solid State Chemistry and Energy. Previously, she held Associate Professor positions at Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC, Paris) from 2002-2006 in the Laboratory of Physics of Dense Media and from 2006-2013 at the Institute of Mineralogy, Physics of Materials and Cosmochemistry (IMPMC), following a Scientist role at Institut Laue Langevin (Grenoble) from 2000-2002.

Her academic credentials include:

• Engineering degree from ESPCI (1997)
• PhD from Orsay University (2000)
• Research Habilitation (HDR) from UPMC (2012)

Dr. Rousse's research centers on the structural and magnetic properties of inorganic materials, with specialized expertise in oxide crystal chemistry, magnetic structure determination, and advanced diffraction techniques. Her experimental work integrates neutron and X-ray powder diffraction methodologies to investigate fundamental solid-state phenomena, particularly in energy-related materials systems.

Her distinguished early-career recognition includes:

• 1999 Research Student Award from the Electrochemical Society's Battery Division
• 1998 Gold Medal Graduate Students Award from the Materials Research Society

She conducts her research within the Solid State Chemistry and Energy Laboratory at Collège de France, focusing on experimental characterization of functional materials for energy applications.
