Bio:
David S. Ginger earned dual B.S. degrees in chemistry and physics at Indiana University in 1997 with departmental honors and highest distinction. He performed undergraduate research with V.E. Viola. He received a British Marshall Scholarship and an NSF Graduate Fellowship and completed his Ph.D. in physics with Neil Greenham in the Optoelectronics group at the University of Cambridge (UK) in 2001. After a joint NIH and DuPont Postdoctoral Fellowship at Northwestern University in Chad Mirkin’s lab, he joined the faculty at the University of Washington in Seattle where he is currently an Assistant Professor of Chemistry and an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Physics. He is a Research Corporation Cottrell Scholar, an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Research Fellow, a Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar, a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers, and the recipient of the 2008 ACS Unilever Award in Colloid and Surfactant Science. His research centers on the physical chemistry of conjugated polymers and nanostructured materials with applications in optoelectronics--especially thin film solar cells--and sensing.
