biography
Thiago Batista Soeiro received the B.Sc. (Hons.) and M.Sc. degrees in electrical engineering from the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), Florianopolis, Brazil, in 2004 and 2007, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich (ETH Zurich), Switzerland, in 2012. During his Master's and Ph.D. studies, he was a Visiting Scholar at the Power Electronics and Energy Research Group, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, and at the Center for Power Electronics Systems, Blacksburg, USA, respectively. From 2012 to 2013, he was a Senior Electrical Engineer at the Power Electronics Institute, Florianopolis, Brazil. From October 2013 to April 2018, he worked at the Corporate Research Center, ABB Switzerland Ltd., Baden-Dattwil, Switzerland, where he was a Senior Scientist. From May 2018 to January 2022, he worked at the DC Systems, Energy Conversion, and Storage Group, Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), Delft, the Netherlands, where he was an Associate Professor. In 2022, he worked with the European Space Agency in the Power Management and Distribution Section (TEC-EPM) of the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC), Noordwijk, the Netherlands.
From October 2022 on, he became a full professor at the University of Twente, Enschede, the Netherlands, where he joined the Power Electronics and EMC group.
All in all, he has published more than 130 technical papers in the field of power electronics, where about 45 are journals, and has filed 15 patents which are in various stages of acceptance. His current areas of interest are Battery Chargers (contact and contact-less technologies), Solar inverters, traction converters for E-transportation, and DC system integration.
Prof. Dr. Soeiro was a recipient of the 2013 IEEE Industrial Electronics Society Best Conference Paper Award and the Best Paper Awards in the following IEEE conferences: International Conference on Power Electronics (ECCE Asia 2011); the International Conference on Industrial Technology (ICIT 2013); the Conference on Power Electronics and Applications EPE'15 (ECCE Europe 2015); and the International Conference on Power Electronics and Motion Control in 2020 and 2022 (PEMC 2020 and 2022).
