His research focuses on the development and engineering of thin film optoelectronic devices for energy applications, including organic and metal oxide-based photovoltaics, ionogel supercapacitors, and chemically-tunable light-emitting devices. Prof. Panzer obtained a B.S. degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Delaware, and a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Minnesota. Prior to joining the faculty at Tufts, he worked for two years as a postdoctoral research associate in the Research Laboratory of Electronics at MIT.
