Professor of Chemistry
New York University
Alexej is Professor of Chemistry at New York University with over 20 years of experience in magnetic resonance and its applications in fields ranging from the health to the materials fields. Alexej led a team that produced the first Lithium MRI images from intact Li-ion cells, which allowed unprecedented visualization and characterization of Li-dendrites in situ. Similar techniques were also used in assessing the performance of supercapacitors. The laboratory has further pioneered developments of techniques for studying the characteristics of commercial and custom cells.
