Samson Ally Jenekhe is the Boeing-Martin Professor of Chemical Engineering and Professor of Chemistry at the University of Washington. Jenekhe was previously a chemical engineer at the University of Rochester where his work focused on semiconducting polymers and quantum wires. He has authored over 300 research articles and 28 patents.
Samson earned his Bachelor of Science in Engineering from Michigan Technological University and his doctoral degrees from the University of Minnesota. [1]
Jenekhe joined the faculty of chemistry at the University of Washington in 2000 as a professor of chemical engineering and chemistry. [2] In 2003, he was one of three University of Washington Professors elected to the American Association for the Advancement of Science. [3]
In 2013, he was elected to the Washington State Academy of Sciences. [4] The next year, he was listed by the Clean Energy Institute as one of the 2014 Highly Cited Researchers. [5]
He was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2003. [6] Jenekhe has been selected as the 2021 recipient of the APS Polymer Physics Prize "for pioneering and sustained outstanding contributions to the synthesis, photophysics, and structure-morphology-performance relationships in semiconducting polymers for electronic and photovoltaic applications."
