About

Dr. Jamie Evans is a leading researcher in the field of smart polymer composites, with a primary focus on the development of advanced self-regulating heating devices. Her work centers on understanding and controlling the electrical and thermal properties of conductive polymer nanocomposites, particularly their positive temperature coefficient (PTC) and pyroresistive behaviors. Dr. Evans’s major contributions include pioneering the use of conductive networks to achieve reliable, flexible, and homogeneous self-regulating heating. Her 2020 paper on the effect of conductive networks on PTC behavior has garnered 66 citations, establishing a foundational understanding in the field. Her highly cited 2017 work on universal control of pyroresistive behavior in flexible self-regulating heaters (56 citations) has been instrumental in advancing smart heating technologies for applications in healthcare, soft robotics, and smart buildings. Most recently, her 2024 paper introduces innovative strategies for achieving uniform heating in nanocomposites, addressing a critical challenge in the field. Dr. Evans’s research is distinguished by its practical impact, offering pathways toward more energy-efficient and reliable heating solutions for next-generation flexible electronic devices.
