About
Elisa Clerc is a pioneering researcher at the forefront of catalysis science and data-driven materials discovery. Her work centers on developing integrated experimental-computational infrastructures to accelerate the identification and optimization of novel catalysts. As co-head of the Swiss CAT+ project—a major ETH-domain infrastructure co-led by EPFL and ETH Zurich—Clerc has established a unique platform that combines automated high-throughput experimentation with advanced computational data analysis. Her most cited paper, "Swiss CAT+, a Data-driven Infrastructure for Accelerated Catalysts Discovery and Optimization" (2023, 25 citations), outlines this transformative approach, which promises to drastically reduce the time from catalyst concept to application. By bridging the gap between big data and chemical synthesis, Clerc’s contributions enable researchers to systematically explore vast chemical spaces, uncovering high-performance catalysts for energy, environmental, and industrial processes. Her work has already garnered significant attention, positioning her as a key architect of next-generation catalysis research. For students and researchers, Clerc exemplifies how integrating automation, machine learning, and domain expertise can revolutionize materials discovery.
