Uta Klement (born 18 December 1962) is a senior professor at Chalmers University of Technology who works in the field of materials science with emphasis on electron microscopy.
[1] The title of her thesis is Recrystallization experiments on <111> tensile deformed copper single crystals supervised by Prof. P. Haasen.
After her PhD, she worked for a year and a half as a post-doctoral fellow on a project titled 'Thermal stability of electrodeposited nanocrystalline Ni' at the department of Metallurgy and Materials Science in the University of Toronto, Canada.
After brief stints as a research fellow at different institutes in Germany, she joined the department of Industrial and Materials Science at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden as a professor in the year 1999.
Her research area includes the application of electron microscopy (TEM, SEM) and complementary techniques as measuring tools to investigate the structure-property relationship of engineering materials (eg- nanomaterials, electroplating, thermal spray coatings, tool-workpiece interaction in machining).
