Miryam Arredondo joined the School of Mathematics  and Physics as a lecturer in 2012. She received her primary degree from the Instituto Tecnologico Superior de Irapuato (Mexico) and was awarded her PhD from the University of New South Wales, Australia, in 2011, working within Professor Valanoor’s research group. Prior to her current appointment, she undertook a postdoctoral fellowship at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics as part of a European project on functional oxides

Her research centres on transmission electron microscopy (TEM)  to study of ferroics and other functional oxides and nanostructures, particularly focusing on dynamic, in-situ imaging techniques to investigate nanoscale phenomena. This work addresses fundamental questions in materials science and condensed matter physics.

Dr Arredondo is also a member of the Institute of Physics’ Electron Microscopy and Analysis Group (EMAG).
