Webinars on June 15, 17, 22, and 29

Participants are sought from across academia, National Laboratories, industry, and NGOs by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) to provide their expertise, insights, and vision for the use of electrochemical processes across the U.S. industrial sector.

Be an active participant or just a “listener” in a virtual workshop series examining how adopting electrochemical technologies and strategies could substantially improve the performance of the industrial sector, for example in energy productivity, thermal efficiency, reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, reduced number of process steps. Opportunities for technology development to accelerate commercial deployment will also be discussed.

Help identify technologies and associated R&D opportunities related to electrochemical processing systems used in major industries.

Assist in prioritizing the technical areas where AMO funding could have the greatest impact on manufacturing, energy efficiency, and greenhouse gas emission reduction.

Participate in the June 15 kickoff session to help set the agenda for the series. (more…)

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 VentonDr. 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.

Q&A

NGenE 2021 Workshop: Inescapable

Streaming on YouTube June 14-16, 2021

Recent years have witnessed a boom in research areas leveraging electrochemistry for diverse uses and applications. The sixth annual Next Generational Electrochemistry Workshop—NGenE 2021—showcases the stunning breadth of topics that now depend on advances in electrochemical knowledge. Simultaneously, NGenE 2021 highlights how many unresolved questions cut across possible applications, meaning that progress at a fundamental level can have a widespread technological and social impact. 

The Electrochemical Society is a sponsor of the NGenE 2021 Workshop.

NGenE 2021: Inescapable
When: 
June 14-16, 2021
Where: Livestream via NGenE’s YouTube channel
Information and sign up for updates*
The FREE online program is open to anyone interested in learning more!

* Doctoral students and postdocs interested in being “in the room” with the panel, contact Thomas at talaan@uic.edu.

Ik Seon Kwon, a PhD student at Korea University, South Korea, is the recipient of the 2021 ECS Korea Section Student Award. The award recognizes a Korean University PhD student for their academic accomplishments in any area of science or engineering in which electrochemical and/or solid state science and technology is the central consideration.

The ECS Korea Section Student Award

The section established the award, which is bestowed annually, in 2005. The winner receives a $500 USD prize which is awarded at an ECS Korea Section meeting. The award recipient may be asked to speak at that meeting on a subject of major interest to him/her in the field of electrochemical and/or solid state science and technology. (more…)

This year’s Annual Society Business Meeting (ASBM) takes place virtually via webinar on Wednesday, June 2, 2021, at 1400h EDT. The meeting is open to all ECS members; registration for the 239th ECS Meeting is required to participate in the ASBM.

Looking back and ahead

At the ASBM, which is held annually during the ECS spring meeting, the Society reviews the past year’s successes and challenges and outlines plans for the coming year.

This year, a special ceremony will be held immediately following the ASBM to announce recent award winners and recognize some of our volunteers’ past service. (more…)

A special livestream event at the 239th ECS Meeting with IMCS18 features representatives of a subcommittee of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Basic Energy Science Advisory Committee (BESAC) reporting on research and requesting input on the future of international scientific research. “Benchmarking Innovation: The Future of International Scientific Research” takes place on June 1, from 1400-1500h EDT after which the content will be available through June 26, 2021. The 239th ECS Meeting with IMCS18 is digital. There is no cost to participate, however pre-registration is required.

Benchmark Study

The BESAC subcommittee is conducting an international benchmark study with the goal of identifying key areas of its mission-relevant research and facility capabilities in which U.S. leadership is most challenged. The presenters will also advise participants on new ways to leverage limited resources and identify incentives to attract and retain scientific talent. The session includes a live panel discussion and moderated Q&A. (more…)
