About

Julia Even is an Associate Professor at the Van Swinderen Institute for Particle Physics and Gravity at the University of Groningen. She obtained her PhD from the University of Mainz, Germany. As a PhD student and postdoc, she worked in the superheavy element group at the GSI Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany. She performed experiments at Nishina Center at RIKEN, Japan. Prior moving to Groningen, she held a Postdoctoral fellowship at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada. Julia Even's research focuses on exotic, atomic nuclei far away from the valley of stability. In particular the interest lies on the heaviest nuclei and nuclei relevant for the synthesis processes of heavy element. Together with her team she develops new experimental setup to produces, separate, and study these nuclei. Julia has been awarded with several research grants including an ERC starting grant.
