Peter Majewski

Peter Majewski is a Professor and Dean of Research Education at the Ian Wark Research Institute of the University of South Australia in Adelaide, Australia. Before he joined the Ian Wark Research Institute in 2003, he was a Senior Scientist and Deputy Department Head of the Materials Synthesis and Microstructure Design Department of the Max-Planck-Institute for Metals Research, Stuttgart, Germany. Simultaneously, he was an Adjunct Professor at the Faculty of Geology and Biology of the University of Stuttgart, Germany. He graduated in Geology at the University of Hannover, Germany, in 1985, and received his Ph.D. degree in mineralogy at the University of Hannover, Germany, in 1988. In 1998, he received his Habilitation in mineralogy at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. His main scientific interests are materials synthesis, surface engineering of micro- and nanoparticles, and phase diagrams for applications in energy, water treatment, immunotargeting, and ore processing.
