Gabriel Constantinescu completed his Doctoral (Ph.D.) and Master (M.Sc.) studies in Physics on May 30, 2014, at the University of Zaragoza (ICMA, CSIC), Spain, and on June 30, 2011, at the Faculty of Physics, University of Bucharest, Romania, respectively. He earned his Engineering Diploma (Dipl.-Eng) Degree in Environmental Engineering on February 28, 2009, from the Faculty of Biotechnical Systems Engineering, "Politehnica" University of Bucharest, Romania. He has a h-index of 19 (as of November 12, 2024, Source: Scopus) and has published 46 peer-reviewed articles (13 as first author) on various functional materials, with a total of 1,780 citations (Source: Scopus, November 12, 2024). He has presented his research results on more than 20 occasions (6 oral presentations and 14 posters) and has received several awards and honors related to science and technology. Additionally, he published one online interview (MCAA Newsletter) and two general-public articles (as a guest author in 2019) on an online blog related to advanced functional materials (MATMATCH) and has participated in several public events, most recently at Researchers' Night 2022, aimed at popularizing science and technology to the general public. He has significant experience in physical sciences and advanced materials research, development, innovation, and engineering. He has worked with more than 15 different types of state-of-the-art materials and 30 high-tech R&D systems in over 8 multidisciplinary scientific projects. In the past five years, he has successfully secured one European project (TEOsINTE; H2020-WF-02-2019 Call; MSCA-IF-EF-ST - Standard Individual Marie Curie fellowship; Grant agreement ID: 101003375; Budget: 147,815.04 EUR; https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101003375, as a Principal Investigator, completed) and three Portuguese project proposals (2021.09690.CBM, as a Principal Investigator, completed; 2022.09319.PTDC, as a Co-Principal Investigator, ongoing; 2023.14478.PEX, as a team member, ongoing). Gabriel has been the main supervisor of three postgraduate students involved in various academic Materials Engineering programs (MSc, industrial project, young researcher training) and serves as a peer reviewer for over 10 international SCI/ISI journals, including Materials Letters and Scientific Reports. He has completed eight professional training courses in Spain, Germany, Romania, and Portugal. From 2019 to 2024, he taught, trained, and managed over 70 final-year science and engineering students in two academic practical courses related to the electrical, magnetic, and optical properties of commercial functional materials. He has also established several new international collaborations in academia and industry, including two recent collaborations in 2021: one with a research and development group from "Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM)," Germany, and another with NABLA Thermoelectrics, Spain. He is a recent (2021) member of three important European science associations: SPCV, ECerS, and MCAA. He is currently working as a contracted researcher in the Portuguese project PRR C644866475-00000012 – MHSi (https://www.ua.pt/pt/projetos-id/1249), focusing on advanced programming, databases, modeling, simulations, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and biodegradable polymeric composites for a prototype two-wheeled electric vehicle concept. His medium-to-long-term goal is to establish his own research team and conduct coherent research, development, and innovation in advanced functional materials, renewable energy production, conversion, and storage solutions. He also aims to promote sustainable living standards and solutions through physical sciences, IT, materials science, technology, and engineering by collaborating with passionate professionals in stimulating projects, teams, and environments. He is driven by the personal philosophy: "Keep on learning and do meaningful work." In his free time, he enjoys going for walks.
