Annalisa Manera

Annalisa Manera is Professor of Nuclear Systems and Multi-phase Flows Laboratory at ETH Zurich since July 2021. She is the recipient of the ANS Bal-Raj Sehgal Memorial Award and the US Department of Energy CASL Director’s award. She is also a Fellow of the American Nuclear Society. Between 2011 and 2021 she was Professor in the Nuclear Engineering Department of the University of Michigan. At the University of Michigan and ETH-Zurich she has established a research program in nuclear systems thermal-hydraulics and is the co-director of the Experimental and Computational Multiphase Flow Laboratory (ECMF) and the High Resolution Imaging Lab. Her research group focuses on high-resolution experimental techniques and CFD-based high-fidelity, multiphysics simulations of nuclear systems. She holds a M.Sc. in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Pisa (110/110 summa cum laude) and a Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from the Delft University of Technology.
