Beatriz Roldán Cuenya (born 1976 in Oviedo) is a Spanish physicist working in surface science and catalysis.

Since 2017 she has been director of the Department of Interface Science at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany.

Since April 2023, she has also been interim director of the Department of Inorganic Chemistry, also at the Fritz Haber Institute.

[2] In 2013, she accepted a Chair Faculty position in Solid State Physics at the Ruhr University Bochum in Germany.

[4] Her main research interests are the synthesis of nanostructured materials with tunable surface properties and the experimental investigation of structure-reactivity relationships in thermal and electro-catalysis using in situ and operando methods.
