Chibueze Amanchukwu is a Neubauer Family Assistant Professor at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering, University of Chicago, with a joint appointment at Argonne National Laboratory. His research is focused on enabling long duration electrical chemical energy storage solutions for a sustainable energy future. He emphasizes modifying electrolyte ion solvation behavior to control the electrochemical processes that occur in batteries and during electrocatalytic transformations for carbon dioxide capture and conversion. Amanchukwu integrates data science, computation, synthesis, and characterization to holistically understand ion transport in electrolytes and manage interfacial reactions for efficient and cost-effective long duration storage. His contributions to the field have been recognized with several awards including the NSF CAREER Award, the DOE Early Career Award, the ECS-Toyota Young Investigator Fellowship, and the CIFAR Azrieli Global Scholar Award, along with the 3M Nontenured Faculty Award. He completed his PhD in chemical engineering and has held fellowships at the MIT TomKat Center and Stanford University.
