Tanya Paskova has obtained her academic degrees from Sofia University, Bulgaria and Linköping University, Sweden. She held posts as a visiting lecturer and associate professor at Linköping University, focussing on development of GaN epitaxial growth for substrate applications and basic study of nitride materials and structures. Dr Paskova has authored more than 200 scientific papers, reviews, chapters, and invited talks at international forums and university seminars and is one of the editors of a book entitled 'Nitrides as seen by the Technology'. She is a referee for several prestigious physics journals and a member of PhD evaluation and workshop organization committees.
