Jason Joseph William Alexander Robinson 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

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.

Honours and awards

• Fellow of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (2019 election).
• University Research Fellow, Royal Society (2011 election).^[8]
• The Brian Pippard Prize for Superconductivity 2010, Institute of Physics.^[9]
