Viktor Brus did his Ph.D. in Solid State Electronics at the Institute for Problems of Materials Science of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in 2012 and received his Doctor of Sciences degree in Physics of Semiconductors and Dielectrics from Chernivtsi National University in 2018. From 2013 until 2020, he was doing research and teaching at Chernivtsi National University (Assistant Professor), Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin (Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow), and the University of California Santa Barbara (Project Leader at the Center for Polymers and Organic Solids, established by the Nobel laureate Prof. Alan Heeger). Since 2020 Viktor Brus is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Physics of Nazarbayev University.

Prof. Brus' research interests are materials science and physics of semiconductor devices, in particular, electronic processes in novel organic (plastic) and hybrid perovskite optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices.
