Insa Neuweiler is professor for Fluid Mechanics and Environmental Physics in Civil Engineering at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geodetic Science at Leibniz University Hannover (LUH) since 2008, where she teaches courses in different Bachelor and Master programmes. She obtained her venia legend in Environmental Fluid Mechanics in 2007 from the University of Stuttgart. She holds a diploma degree in physics from the University of Heidelberg, which she obtained in 1995. After finishing her doctoral degree from ETH Zurich, working with Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Kinzelbach at the Institute of Environmental Engineering at ETH Zurich, she was a postdoctoral researcher at Imperial College London, funded by a Marie Curie scholarship and working with Prof. Peter King. From 2003 to 2008 she was head of an Emmy Noether research group, funded by the German Science Foundation (DFG), at the Institute for Modelling Hydraulic and Environmental Systems at University of Stuttgart. Insa Neuweiler is an active member in the scientific community of Water Research. She was and is member of editorial boards of related journals. At the moment she is associate editor for the journal Advances in Water Resources. She has been active in organizing workshops and sessions at conferences, such as the annual meeting of the European Geosciences Union or the bi-annual conference Computational Methods in Water Resources. She was invited for keynote plenary lectures at the conference Computational Methods in Water Resources in 2014 and at the Gordon Research Conference on Flow and Transport in Permeable Media in 2016. She was spokesperson of the DFG Research Unit FOR 824 (Multi-Scale Interfaces in Soils, MUSIS) and co-spokesperson of the DFG Research Unit FOR 2131 (Data Assimilation for Improved Characterization of Fluxes across Compartmental Interfaces). At the moment she is co-spokesperson of the DFG Collaborative Research Center CRC 1463: Integrated Design and Operation Methodology for Offshore Megastructures. She has has been main supervisor of 13 doctoral students who successfully graduated and co-supervisor of many others.
