Jessica Zamarripa defends her Ph.D. dissertation on liquid metal circuits

Posted on December 15, 2025 by Darren J. Hartl

To close out the year, Jessica Zamarripa successfully defended her Ph.D. dissertation this December. Jessica has had one of the longest tenures of any student on the MAESTRO team, having started as an undergraduate student after her freshman year. Her work addressed to the deposition of flexible liquid metal-based circuits and the passivation and preparation needed to print such circuits on shape memory alloy substrates.

Congratulation to Dr. Zamarripa and best of luck with your new position as a civil servant in the Power Systems Branch at NASA-JSC!
