Tübingen, Mons, and GeorgiaTech, he joined IMDEA Nanociencia in 2008 as a Senior Researcher (Ramón y Cajal fellow 2008-13). In 2014, he finalized his habilitation at the University of Tübingen, and holds an Adj. Professorship (Privatdozent) there since then.

His 120 papers (7000 citations, h-index of 43) are dedicated to integrative spectroscopic and computational research on conjugated organic materials for optoelectronics and energy conversion. J.G. has presented his work in 80 orals at international conferences (30 reputably invited) and 80 invited seminars at research institutes.

Dr. Gierschner coordinated several European and national projects. He held a visiting researcher position at the University of Valencia (2008-11) and adjunct professor positions at Seoul National University (SNU; 2014/15) and University of Mons (2014/15). He is currently regular visiting researcher at SNU since 2009, UV (2014-) and UNIST, Ulsan (2016-).
