Yaiza Gonzalez-Garcia is an electrochemistry expert specializing in corrosion and protection methods of different materials. With an MSc in Chemistry and a PhD in Physical Chemistry from the University of La Laguna (Spain), she focuses on applying advanced electrochemical methods for studying metal degradation mechanisms. Her contributions include simulating microelectrochemical measurements for corrosion studies and analysing the relationship between metal microstructure and corrosion (electrochemical) properties. She is an Associate Professor at the Materials Science and Engineering department at TU Delft (Netherlands). She leads the Localized Corrosion and Electrochemistry team, conducting high-resolution electrochemical research on diverse applications like automotive, energy storage, art heritage, and biomaterials. The main research line of the team focuses on studying the relationship between the microstructure of metals and corrosion properties. She has 86 publications in leading peer-reviewed scientific journals in corrosion and electrochemistry, with an h-index of 29 and more than 3100 citations. She is the responsible docent of several courses: “Corrosion Science”, Module “Electrochemistry” (within Materials Characterization) and “Metallic Materials in Maritime Structures” and “Materials Science Project”. She has received prestigious fellowships, including a Humboldt Foundation Post-Doctoral Fellowship (2008) and a Delft Technology Fellowship grant (2013). She is a member of the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC) Board of Administrators and co-chair of the EFC WP Corrosion Education. Furthermore, she is the Secretary/Treasurer of the ECS Corrosion Division.
