Jason Joseph William Alexander Robinson FIMMM is a British academic, and Professor of Materials Physics at the University of Cambridge[1] in the Department of Materials Science & Metallurgy. He is also a Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge.[2] He has worked extensively in the areas of superconductivity, superconducting spintronics,[3] spintronics, magnetism, quantum materials, and nanoelectronics. Particular research topics include the superconductor proximity effect, unconventional superconductivity, quantum and topological transport.[4][5]

Research and career[edit]

Robinson received his PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2007 for research into strongly ferromagnetic Josephson junctions[6] under Prof. Mark Blamire. From 2008 to 2011 he was a Junior Research Fellow in St John's College, Cambridge, and between 2011 and 2018 a University Research Fellow of the Royal Society.[7] In 2015 he was appointed a lecturer in the University Cambridge, a Reader in 2016, and Full Professor in 2019. Since 2023, Robinson is also the Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism.
