Józef R. Lewandowski

Józef Romuald Lewandowski is a Polish chemist and Professor at the Chemistry Department of the University of Warwick. He is known for his research on the development of solid-state NMR methodology and NMR spectroscopy.

Life and career

Lewandowski completed his high school education at the UWC Red Cross Nordic in Norway, having been selected by the United World Colleges' Polish national committee, graduating with an International Baccalaureate Diploma in 1997.
In 2002, he obtained his BA degree in chemistry from Amherst College. In 2008, he graduated in physical chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 2011, he became assistant professor of Physical Chemistry of the University of Warwick, UK. From 2008 to 2011, he conducted postdoctoral research as a Marie Curie Fellow at the Centre de RMN à Très Haut Champs, Lyon, France. In 2019, he was promoted to the full professor status.
His main scientific interests include nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. In 2015, he won the Anatole Abragam Prize conferred by the International Society of Magnetic Resonance while in 2016, he received the Marlow Award of the Royal Society of Chemistry.
