Dr. Natalia Martín Sabanés
Natalia Martín Sabanés obtained her Bachelor degree in Physics in 2011 at the Autónoma University of Madrid. She worked in the Spanish National Center of Cardiovascular Research for her master thesis, in the field of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and obtained her master degree in 2013 in Biomedical Physics. She moved to Mainz (Germany) to work as a PhD in the group of Katrin Domke and Mischa Bonn in Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research. Her PhD thesis consisted of developing a tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy setup able to operate under electrochemical conditions. After getting her PhD in Chemistry in 2017, she moved to Berlin as a postdoc in Fritz Haber Institute, where she worked on the development of a THz-gated Scanning tunneling microscope in the group of Melanie Müller and Martin Wolf.
Natalia has specialized in near-field techniques and setup development, in particular merging scanning probe microscopy and different optical techniques for the investigation of physico-chemical processes and ultrafast dynamics in the nano-scale.
In 2020, she got a Marie Curie postdoctoral fellowship and moved to IMDEAnano to develop her new project in the field of near-field Raman spectroscopy and optical tweezers.
