معرفی
Eric McCalla is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at McGill University, Faculty of Science. His research focuses on designing functional materials for advanced battery technologies, including Li-ion and Na-ion batteries, using high-throughput synthesis and machine learning. He leads the McCalla Lab, which collaborates with industry to develop sustainable energy storage solutions.
Educations: B.Sc. (Mount Allison University, 2000), M.Sc. (McGill University, 2002), B.Ed. (Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2005), Ph.D. (Dalhousie University, 2013), followed by postdoctoral research at Collège de France (Paris, 2014-2015) and the University of Minnesota (2015-2017).
Research Interests: High-throughput methods for battery materials, solid-state electrolytes, anode/cathode design, and applications in renewable energy. Current projects include stabilizing Na-ion cathodes, developing water-soluble binders, and exploring bipolar semiconductors.
Teaching: CHEM 273 (Physical Chemistry 2) and CHEM 429 (Energy Storage & Utilization). Lab website: McCalla Lab.
