Dr. Mariya Shamzhy received her Master’s degree in Chemistry from Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russia. She subsequently joined the L.V. Pisarzhevsky Institute of Physical Chemistry (National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine), where she completed her Ph.D. in 2013.
She then joined the J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry in Prague as a postdoctoral fellow under the supervision of Prof. Jiří Čejka. From 2014 to 2016, she continued her research at the same institute with support from the Czech Science Foundation. Since 2017, Dr. Shamzhy has held the position of Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague.
Her research focuses on the design and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic study of nanostructured materials, particularly their application as catalysts for the synthesis of fine chemicals. She specializes in tailoring active sites in zeolite-based catalysts and in the advanced characterization of materials using FTIR techniques.
Dr. Shamzhy is the author of 84 scientific publications and holds an h-index of 27.
