Brian Seger '09 is a Professor of Surface Science and Catalysis in the Physics Department and member of the Villum Center for Sustainability (VSustain) at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) . His research focuses on accelerating the transition from a fossil fuel and chemical based society to one that is based on sustainable energy. More specifically, his research can be broken down to a major thrust in electrocatalysis and a minor thrust in photovoltaics with projects based on electrochemical CO2 reduction, electrohalogenation of hydrocarbons, and photovoltaic/photochemistry using the power derived from sustainable energy sources (i.e. wind and solar) to electrochemically drive reactions to high value chemicals and fuels.

Prof. Seger received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Notre Dame in 2009 and his Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from The University of Toledo College of Engineering.
