Rebekah Wells

Originally from the US, Rebekah’s interest in nanomaterials began at UNC where she studied novel nanomaterials for optoelectronic applications as an undergraduate researcher. She earned her PhD from EPFL in 2022 for her work developing fully scalable routes for devices based on semiconducting nanosheets, with implications for solar-to-chemical energy conversion on a global scale. After graduation, Rebekah briefly worked in the EPFL doctoral school, supporting strategic planning for doctoral education and pioneering the EPFL PhD Excellence Program. Currently, Rebekah is an SNSF Postdoc.Mobility Fellow at Trinity College Dublin (TCD), where she investigates nanosheet networks for printable electronics.
