Case Western Reserve University Hosts 2024 Electrochemical Measurements Workshop
Posted on July 5, 2024 by Frances ChavesPresented by Prof. Daniel A. Scherson and Prof. Andrew A. Gewirth from August 12-16, 2024
The 2024 Workshop on Electrochemical Measurements takes place from August 12-16, 2024, at Case Western Reserve University. The Ernest B. Yeager Center for Electrochemical Sciences (YCES) organizes the annual event which is offered in person (onsite) and virtually. World-renowned electrochemists are participating, including Andrew (Andy) Gewirth, Gerald Frankel, Mark Orazem, Uzi Landau, Robert Savinell, and Daniel Scherson. Lectures cover fundamental aspects of electrochemistry, double layer theory, electroanalytical chemistry, corrosion, electrocatalysis, electrochemical engineering and fuel cell and batteries, in addition to modeling of electrochemical systems. Four hands-on laboratories are presented in real time and also recorded for later viewing. Areas covered include cyclic voltammetry, surface electrochemistry, microelectrodes, the rotating disk and ring-disk electrodes, and impedance spectroscopy. Demonstration is offered in electrocatalysis and corrosion.
The Electrochemical Society is a proud sponsor of the workshop.
