Education
Sattler completed her PhD in 1998 under the supervision of Franz Baader at RWTH Aachen University. She moved to the University of Manchester as Lecturer in 2002, was promoted senior lecturer in 2003, reader in 2006 and then a professor in 2007.
Research
Sattler's research focuses on logic to support knowledge representation including description logic, Dynamic logic and Modal logic. She is also investigating the inference problems, complexity theory and decision procedures associated with knowledge representation. This research has been important in the development of the Web Ontology Language (OWL) and its use in bioinformatics and molecular biology.
Sattler's research has been partly funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.
Academic Service
Sattler is an editor of the Journal of Logic and Computation, on the editorial board of the Journal of Automated Reasoning, and a chair for various conferences including the International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning.
Awards
Sattler was elected a member of the Academia Europaea (MAE) in 2014. She was co-recipient of the best paper prize at the International Semantic Web Conference in 2008.
