Biography:
Gerrit Ernst-Wilhelm Bauer (*1956) holds an Engineering Degree (1980) in Chemical Technology from Twente University (The Netherlands) and Doctor Degree in Physics (1984) from the Technical University Berlin (Germany) for research carried out at the Hahn-Meitner-Institute of Nuclear Research. After a postdoc at the Institute for Solid State Physics of the University of Tokyo (1984-86), he became a member of the Scientific Staff of the Philips Research Laboratories (1986-92). He was appointed Professor of Physics at Delft University of Technology in 1992 and at Tohoku University in 2011. He (co)authored >200 refereed scientific papers in the area of condensed matter physics, in the last two decades mainly in the field of magnetoelectronics/spintronics. He received the Wilhelm-Conrad-R?ntgen Award from W?rzburg University (2000), the Outstanding Referee Award by the American Physical Society (2008), the Lars Onsager Medal from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (2009). He became Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2010 ??or exposing the interaction between spin transport, magnetization dynamics, charge and heat transport, and mechanical motion??
