Pablo A.
García-Salaberri

Pablo A. García-Salaberri holds a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering (2009) and a M.S. degree in Industrial Mathematics (2012) from Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M). Pablo continued his studies in the Fluid Mechanics Research Group at UC3M Dept. of Thermal and Fluids Engineering (UC3M-DTFE), where he completed his PhD in Mathematical Engineering. His PhD thesis deals with the multiphysics modeling of liquid-feed direct methanol fuel cells and the characterization of diffusive transport properties of gas diffusion layers. As part of his doctoral program, Pablo initiated a collaborative research line (after a three-month stay) with Dr. Jeff Gostick (Canada).

After his doctoral studies, Pablo received a postdoctoral fellowship from the German Aerospace Center (DLR) to work six months at the DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics (Germany). After that, Pablo came back to UC3M-DTFE, where he worked as postdoctoral researcher with a fellowship from the Spanish Ministry of Education for a period of six months (2016). In this period, his work focused on the development of models for hydrogen polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. In January 2017, Pablo became Teaching Assistant with PhD at UC3M-DTFE and performed a short stay with Dr. Iryna V. Zenyuk at Tufts University (USA). In 2018, Pablo was awarded a six-month Fulbright fellowship to work at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (USA) under the supervision of Dr. Adam Weber and the Futures Early Career Award of the Science and Technology Facilities Council of the UK Governement. In addition, he supervised a research project of the Spanish Iberdrola Foundation to investigate on redox flow batteries. In September 2019, Pablo became Visiting Professor at UC3M-DTFE, period from which he has initiated new interdisciplinary research lines with Spanish and European groups.
