Judith Louise MacManus-Driscoll is a Professor of Materials Science at the University of Cambridge.[2][3] She is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics (IOP), the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3), the Materials Research Society (MRS) and the American Physical Society (APS).[citation needed]

Education[]

She earned an undergraduate degree in materials science at Imperial College London,[4] and a PhD in 1991 from the University of Cambridge.[4]

Research and career[]

She did training as a postdoctoral researcher from 1991 to 1995 at Stanford University and IBM Almaden Research Center.[5] In 1995, she joined Imperial College London as a lecturer in the Department of Materials, and was promoted to reader in 1999.[5] She then did a sabbatical at Los Alamos National Laboratory[5] and subsequently joined the University of Cambridge in the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy in 2003. She was promoted to Professor in 2008.[5]

Driscoll has conducted research on oxide systems, focusing particularly on high temperature superconductivity, ferroics and multiferroics, ionics, and semiconductors.

Driscoll is founding editor-in-chief of the American Institute of Physics's journal APL Materials.[6][7] She has two patents relating to high-temperature superconductivity with rights assigned to Cambridge Enterprise Limited.[8]
