Noa Marom
Associate Professor, Materials Science and Engineering
Noa Marom received a B.A. in physics and a B.S. in materials engineering, both cum laude, from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 2003. From 2002 to 2004, she worked as an application engineer in the Process Development and Control Division of Applied Materials. In 2010, she received a Ph.D. in chemistry from the Weizmann Institute of Science. She was awarded the Shimon Reich Memorial Prize of Excellence for her thesis. She then pursued postdoctoral research at the Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences (ICES) at the University of Texas at Austin. From 2013 to 2016, she was an assistant professor in the Physics and Engineering Physics (PEP) Department at Tulane University. In 2016, she joined the Materials Science and Engineering Department at Carnegie Mellon as an assistant professor. She holds courtesy appointments in the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry, and is a member of the Pittsburgh Quantum Institute (PQI)
