Very excited to announce I’ll deliver the UCI Early Career Distingushed Scholar Seminar! I’ll be on campus Monday for my talk, if your on campus please stop by!

Was an amazing 2024 GRC-Batteries week at Ventura, CA, led by Kelsey B. Hatzell & Dasgupta Research Group - looking forward to co-chairing the next in 2026 with Dr. Rachel Carter from NRL - stay tuned! Energy and Transport Sciences Lab

Hi! I'm Skyler, an independent science writer currently taking on new clients. I can create: -Reported news/feature articles -Q&As/Explainers -Educational content -Blog posts -Press releases I'm also available to fact-check and copy edit! Work with me: skylerdware.com

Using metal sacrificial anodes in organic echem? Do they turn black, short-circuit your cell, or otherwise mess up your reaction? Check out our perspective on troubleshooting common anodes, out now in Chemical Science! Collab w/ Song Lin Lab #MyFirstChemSci pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Check out Skyler Ware, PhD's new paper on sacrificial anodes! If you're having trouble with yours, this is written as a troubleshooting guide. The guide will help expand reaction conditions! Collab with Song Lin Lab in Center for Synthetic Organic Electrochemistry #proudsadvisor

A happy belated pie day and even more belated welcome to our new G1s, Naiara and Zion! They brought in some excellent pies from the classic Pie n' Burger yesterday🤩

Incredibly proud — more to come from abigail jiang ! ☺️

Many, many, many congratulations to Dr. Zachery W. B. Iton who beautifully defended his PhD today! I could not be more proud of his thesis, the scientist and leader he is, and all the work he's done. Congratulations, Zac iton!! We will miss you! #proudadvisor 🎉🍾 The See Group

Thank you 🔋 Kim See 🔋! I couldn’t have asked for a better PhD Advisor. Excited to see the work that’s coming from the The See Group in the future!

If anyone is interested in a postdoc position studying the effect of electrolyte composition on electrochemical CO2 reduction in Liquid Sunlight Alliance, please send me an email with your CV with a subject line: "CO2R postdoc." We have some cool results to understand!

So proud of this crew!!! Congratulations ⁦Zac iton⁩ ⁦Skyler Ware, PhD⁩ and Leah!! 🎉🎉#proudadvisor

Check out Steve's paper looking at isostructural mats that undergo anion redox, but with metals of different d band positions. The anion oxidation potential is unchanged - confirming that anion oxidation occurs from nonbonding S p states. #battchat pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

I'm so excited that this is out! Huge congrats to Steve and co, especially Daniil and Anton! We clearly show that cation vacancies enable anion oxidation using Steve's clever set of materials based on LiTiS2 and Li2TiS3. Vacancy = space and S nb states. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Check out Michelle's paper! She studies LiNaFeS2 in both Li and Na half cells to compare anion redox mechanisms when Li vs Na is the majority charge carrier in the electrolyte. The charge compensation is the same, but the structural implications are not. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

.Zac iton's last paper 🥲 in The See Group just came out in Journal of the American College of Surgeons (JACS) today! A beautiful paper on the MPS3 framework as a modular host for mobile, solvated ions (incl aprotic solv!). He interrogates many structure-property relationships. #proudadvisor pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

The B Sample of our first planned product, QSE-5, features energy density over 800 Wh/L and is capable of fast charging from 10-80% in less than 15 min — a new high-water mark for the battery industry. youtu.be/9YAVoCIWleY

Someone finally defeated Messi’s bodyguard 😂

Had the chance to speak to a crowd of grad students and postdoc researchers at the Materials Research Society (MRS) conference in Seattle. Really enjoyed their enthusiasm and fresh ideas on next-generation batteries.
