Greta R. Patzke (born 2 March 1974 in Bremen) is Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Zurich.[1]

Life

From 1993 to 1997 she studied chemistry at Leibniz University Hannover.[1] Her diploma thesis dealt with solid-state chemistry and computational chemistry.[1] From 1997 to 1999 she completed her dissertation at Leibniz University in the group of Michael Binnewies.[1] This dissertation dealt with the synthesis, characterization and properties of mixed oxides.[1] In the group of Reinhard Nesper at the ETH Zurich she worked on her habilitation from 1999 on.[1] During this time she worked on inorganic structural chemistry, the synthesis of nanomaterials and the systematic application and investigation of hydrothermal techniques.[1] From 2007 to 2013, Greta Patzke was Assistant Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Zurich (Swiss National Science Foundation's funded professorship).[1] In spring 2013 she was promoted to Associate Professor.[1] Since May 2016 she is Full Professor.[1] Since 2017 she is part of the institute's Board of Directors.[1]
