Chief Editor: Nicky DeanNicky joined Nature Research in July 2011 as an editor for Nature Communications, where he handled a broad range of manuscripts across applied and fundamental physics and photonics, including solar cells and light-trapping structures for energy harvesting. He also managed a team of physics and earth sciences editors, before leaving to launch Nature Energy in April 2015. Nicky gained his DPhil from the University of Oxford, where he employed a range of time-resolved techniques, from X-rays down to the terahertz regime, to study ultrafast dynamics in correlated electron materials. His subsequent postdoctoral studies for the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter involved characterizing and controlling the magnetic behaviour of multiferroics using nonlinear optical techniques. Nicky is based in the London office. n.dean@nature.com Senior Editor: James GallagherJames arrived at Nature Energy in September 2015. After receiving an MSc in Natural Sciences (Chemistry) from the University of Cambridge, he moved to the University of Liverpool for his PhD, where he developed high-throughput screens to evaluate Fischer-Tropsch catalysts for the production of liquid fuels from syngas. During his postdoctoral work at Argonne National Laboratory he used synchrotron X-ray techniques to study new catalysts for energy applications, with a focus on biomass and alkane transformations. James is based in the London office. james.gallagher@nature.com Senior Editor: Jenn RichlerJenn joined Nature Research in 2016 as a Senior Editor serving Nature Climate Change and Nature Energy. She handles a broad range of manuscripts from across the behavioral sciences, including psychology, sociology, behavioral economics, political science, and communications. Prior to joining the company, Jenn was an associate editor at Journal of Experimental Psychology: General where she handled manuscripts spanning all areas of experimental psychology, and served as a writer for the American Psychological Association, where she covered primary research for a general academic audience. Jenn completed her PhD in psychology and postdoctoral work at Vanderbilt University. Jenn is based in the New York office. jennifer.richler@us.nature.com Senior Editor: Changjun ZhangChangjun, also known as Alex, joined Nature Research in March 2013 as an editor for Nature Communications. He handled manuscripts across a range of subjects, focusing on batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, fundamental electrochemistry, surface science and heterogeneous catalysis, before moving to Nature Energy in August 2015. Alex received his PhD in surface catalysis from Queen’s University Belfast. He later worked in postdoctoral positions at the University of Cambridge and University College London, where his research expertise expanded to the fields of energy production and storage. Alex is based in the London office. changjun.zhang@nature.com Associate Editor: Fouad KhanFouad joined Nature Energy in September 2017. Prior to joining Nature Research, Fouad worked on energy, infrastructure and urban development projects for such institutions as the World Bank, UNOPS and WWF. He has a Bachelor in Civil Engineering, MS in Environmental Engineering and a PhD in Environmental Science and Policy. His PhD work focused on the relationship between urban form and energy consumption efficiency in cities. He did post-doctoral work at Aarhus University in Denmark working with WWF Luc Hoffmann Institute and One Planet City Challenge program investigating optimum pathways for energy transitions in different types of cities. Fouad has been a UN Future Earth Fellow (2014) and a Fulbright scholarship recipient (2005-2007). He is based in the New York office. fouad.khan@us.nature.com Associate Editor: Giulia TregnagoGiulia joined Nature Energy in May 2018. She received her BSc in Materials Science and MSc in Chemistry from Università del Piemonte Orientale, Italy. Her postgraduate Master in Materials for Energy took her to Solaronix, Switzerland, where she worked on dye-sensitized solar cells. She later obtained her PhD in Physics from University College London where she studied the photophysics of organic semiconductors and their application in light-emitting diodes. She then took up a position as project manager within a Horizon 2020 European Training Network on organic materials for photonics and optoelectronics. Giulia is based in the London office. giulia.tregnago@nature.com
