Paulette Clancy
Paulette Clancy is a distinguished computational materials scientist and engineer. She currently serves as Professor and the inaugural Head of the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. Previously, she was the Samuel & Diane Bodman Professor of Chemical Engineering at Cornell University, where she spent over 30 years and directed major research centres.
Her research group is known as one of the country’s leading teams in atomic‑scale modelling of materials and algorithm development. Her current work focuses on developing machine‑learning and Bayesian‑optimisation algorithms to accelerate the discovery and processing of advanced electronic and functional materials. She has also been an advocate for diversity, mentoring women and under‑represented groups in engineering and the physical sciences.
