Dr. Jesper Friis is a senior scientist at SINTEF in the group of Materials Physics. An important part of his research has been on modelling of metallic alloys and solar cell silicon from the electronic to microstructure scale. The need for robust coupling of software models at different scales made him a central participant in the work conducted by EMMC on interoperability and the development of the European Materials & Modelling Ontology. The resent years he has been working with the development of the EMMO ontology and methodology for interoperability and data documentation.
He is experienced in EU projects, both as coordinator and participant and has been an active contributor to EMMC since 2014. He is the chair of the Focus Area on Digitalisation & Interoperability and serves in the Board of Directors of EMMC ASBL.
