The research group led by Stuart B. Adler focuses on understanding the electrocatalytic properties of solids and their relevance to electrochemical processes in devices. The primary motivation behind this work is to promote energy sustainability, with electrocatalysts being essential for various energy conversion and storage technologies, including fuel cells, solid-state electrolysis, photochemical devices, batteries, and gas separation membranes. The group utilizes advanced transient operando electrochemical diagnostics alongside detailed physical models to comprehend the local properties and dynamics of electrocatalysts. With a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, obtained in 1993, Adler previously completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Imperial College London and has worked as a senior research engineer at Ceramatec, Inc. before returning to academic roles in 1999. His significant awards include the NSF-NATO Postdoctoral Fellowship, the NSF Career Award, and the Charles W. Tobias Young Investigator Award from the Electrochemical Society.
