Brahim Aïssa earned his PhD in materials science and energy from INRS-EMT, Canada, before joining MPB Communications Inc. where he worked in the Space & Photonics department until 2014. In September 2014, he joined the Qatar Environment and Energy Research Institute (QEERI) as a senior scientist. He collaborated with the EPFL, Switzerland, where he twice hit the world record for power conversion efficiencies in quasi-mono silicon solar cells. He has published more than 200 refereed papers, five books, and holds many patents. Dr. Aïssa has numerous international awards, prizes, and fellowships including the prestigious NPI award from the European Space Agency, the Australian Endeavour fellowship, and the Canadian NSERC R&D industrial fellowship. His PhD and MSc theses were awarded the Top prize for the best scientific achievement, and a part of his work was selected among the best TOP-10 scientific discoveries in Canada. Dr. Brahim is an associate editor in 8 different journals, and a senior fellow of three UNESCO chairs, including the Nanoscience and nanotechnology (UNISA/South Africa), the African Network in Nanoscience (NANOAFNET/South Africa), and the Materials and Technologies for Energy Conversion, Saving and Storage (MATECSS/Canada).
