Our paper on comparative transcriptomics of the retina is finally out! Feeling happy, content and grateful! nature.com/articles/s4158…

@RazdanNeil @UCBerkeley Very excited to have you join us, Neil! @UCB_Chemistry

I'm excited to share that I will be joining @UCBerkeley as an Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering in Fall 2024!

We are building a major effort in electrochemical science, engineering, and technology at UC Berkeley / LBL to synergize with @OregonEChem and work together to change the world through electrochemistry. electrochemistry.berkeley.edu

@BoettcherLab @OregonEChem Welcome, Shannon! Excited to have you join us! @UCB_Chemistry @BerkeleyLabETA

I am excited to post that the Boettcher group will transition to UC Berkeley and LBNL in Jan 2024. Big plans for our work across research, education, technology commercialization, and workforce, building on efforts here in the @OregonEChem which we will continue to push forward!

In conclusion, connecting measurable voltage values with complex phenomena like lithium plating is a step toward reliable machine-learning models for battery preservation. 🤖🔋 (10/10)

Our work opens doors for optimizing charge protocols, exploring other electrode materials, and considering 3D modeling for real-world applications. 🌐🔍 (9/10)

How can we safely fast-charge aging batteries? We offer simple rules using the battery voltage during charge and explore new methods for battery modeling, data science, and controls 🧪🔋 @UCB_Chemistry @BerkeleyLab @NREL doi.org/10.1021/acsene… 🧵👇 (1/10)

Non-ideal ion correlations challenge ideal solution assumptions in commonly used battery electrolyte engineering. Understanding ion correlations is crucial for designing battery electrolytes with improved ion transport. (7/7)

Caveats: This study focuses on unentangled polyelectrolyte solutions. Highly entangled gel-like solutions may behave differently. (6/7)

Can we enhance Li transport without sacrificing conductivity in polyelectrolyte solutions? Our study uncovers negative Li transference due to correlated ion motion, challenging common assumptions in battery electrolyte engineering. doi.org/10.1039/D3SC01… @HelenkBergstrom (1/7)
