The Electrochemical Society hosted Prof. Jill Venton’s live webinar, “Novel Carbon Electrodes for Neurochemistry,” on May 26, 2021. Below are answers to questions posed after the presentation.
NOTE: Registration is required to view the webinar.
Dr. B. Jill Venton is Professor and Chair of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Virginia (UVA), U.S. She is also affiliated with the Neuroscience Graduate Program and UVA Brain Institute. Dr. Venton received her BS in Chemistry from the University of Delaware, U.S.; her PhD in Chemistry from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, U.S.; and did postdoctoral research at the University of Michigan, U.S. Her career at UVA started in 2005 and she became Chair of the Department of Chemistry in 2019. The Venton Group’s research focuses on developing analytical chemistry tools for neuroscience research. The lab studies many neuroscience diseases, from Parkinson’s, to addiction, stroke, and aging.

The Electrochemical Society hosted Prof. Jenny Pringle’s live webinar, “The Development of New Ionic Electrolytes for Energy Storage Devices” on April 21, 2021. Her answers to questions that followed the presentation are provided below.
NOTE: Registration is required to view the webinar.
Prof. Jenny Pringle works in the Institute for Frontier Materials at Deakin University, Australia, as a chief investigator in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) and the ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centre “StorEnergy.” She received her undergraduate degrees and PhD at The University of Edinburgh, Scotland, before moving to Monash University, Australia, in 2002. From 2008-2012, she held an ARC Queen Elizabeth II Fellowship investigating the use of ionic electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cells. Pringle moved to Deakin University in 2013. There she leads research into the development of new ionic liquids and organic ionic plastic crystals for applications including thermal energy harvesting, gas separation membranes, and lithium and sodium batteries.
