J. Carlos Santamarina is an Argentinian Professor of Civil Engineering (Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering) at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. He is affiliated with the Earth Science and Engineering Program of the Physical Science and Engineering Division. Santamarina was born in Cordoba, Argentina, studied civil engineering at the Universidad Nacional de Cordoba (degree in Civil Engineering, 1982), the University of Maryland (master's degree in 1984) and Purdue University, where he received his doctorate in 1987. He was a member of the faculty at NYU Polytechnic University (1987-1991), University of Waterloo (1992-1995), and Georgia Tech (1996-2015) before he joined KAUST in March 2015, where he leads the Energy GeoEngineering Laboratory (EGEL). His research deals with the scientific foundations of geomaterial behavior and subsurface processes using particle-level and pore-scale experiments, combined with numerical methods and high-resolution process monitoring systems. This conceptual and experimental framework is used to advance the study of phenomena and the development of solutions in energy geotechnology with contributions to: resource recovery (petroleum, methane hydrates), energy geo-storage, efficiency and conservation, and the geological storage of energy waste (carbon geological storage, fly ash and nuclear waste). Santamarina delivered the American Society of Civil Engineers [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQGdw_-mOyc ASCE 50th Terzaghi Lecture on Energy Geotechnology]. His research hobbies include engineering creativity TED talk and bio-mediated/bio-inspired geoengineering. Books
