Secretary: Evan Jahrman
Gerald Seidler Research Group
As an x-ray spectroscopist, I am keenly aware of the role element specific techniques sensitive to an atom’s ligand environment and oxidation state can play, especially for in operando studies aimed at understanding aging effects.
Treasurer: Luke Gibson
Pfaendtner Research Group (PRG)
Using computational chemistry to study early state SEI formation.
Webmaster: Matt Murbach
Schwartz Research Group
Matt’s research brings together data science and electrochemistry to develop tools for advanced diagnostics for electrochemical systems. His work particularly focuses on nonlinear electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (NLEIS) for lithium-ion batteries. He is also a co-founder of Battery Informatics, a startup focused on commercializing next-generation battery management systems.
