Levi Hoogendoorn

Levi joined the GER in June 2023 as part of the DAAD Rise Internship Program for a three month research stay. Currently, Levi is a third-year undergraduate student at Northwestern University, where she is pursuing degrees in Materials Science, Mathematics, and the Integrated Science Program. She has done research at Northwestern, in Professor Hersam's lab, where she has worked on mixed dimensional heterostructures for both optoelectronic and potential quantum computing applications. She has also studied polaritons in 2D materials as part of a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program at Vanderbilt University. Levi aims to pursue a PhD at the intersection of materials science and sustainability, with interests in batteries, fuel cells, and solar cells.
