Trinity College Dublin, Ireland
After a first degree in Material Science, Lewys received his PhD from the Department of Materials at the University of Oxford in 2013. This focussed on two themes; scanning stability in the aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope (AC-STEM) and applications of focal series of annular dark-field data. Following 4 years as a post-doc in the Nellist group at the David Cockayne Centre for Electron Microscopy, in 2017 Lewys moved to Trinity College Dublin to found the Ultramicroscopy Group as the new Ussher Assistant Professor in Ultramicroscopy.
In 2019, Lewys was awarded a Royal Society & Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) University Research Fellowship to expand the hardware instrumentation development activities of the group.
Lewys has authored around 130 articles and proceedings with more than 2200 combined citations, and has launched two commercial software plug-ins for Digital Micrograph in collaboration with HREM Research.
Lewys is currently the President of the Microscopy Society of Ireland (MSI), the Director of the SFI-EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Advanced Characterisation, an Editorial Board Member at Philosophical Transactions A, and has been a Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society since 2015.
