Researcher

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University seeks a highly motivated researcher to conduct experimental research in electrochemical energy storage and aqueous zinc-ion batteries. The position will support the overall battery research program with an emphasis on developing advanced electrode materials and architectures for improved battery performance, safety, and durability. The role involves designing and conducting electrochemical experiments, fabricating electrodes, and correlating electrochemical behavior with electrode structure and morphology. The successful candidate will work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary research team to identify battery failure mechanisms and prepare scientific manuscripts and presentations.
