Wesley M. Dose is a Senior Lecturer and DECRA Fellow at the University of Sydney, specializing in sustainable high-energy materials for energy storage. He holds a Bachelor of Science with First Class Honors and a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Newcastle, where his research focused on manganese-based materials for lithium batteries. He has postdoctoral experience at Argonne National Laboratory in Chicago, USA, and the University of Cambridge in the UK. In 2021, he joined the faculty at the University of Leicester and later moved to the University of New South Wales in 2022 to pursue his DECRA Fellowship. Wesley's research emphasizes the development of advanced battery materials, exploring lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and beyond lithium-ion chemistries, which are crucial for the global energy transition towards cleaner sources and combating climate change. His core research activities encompass the synthetic design of battery materials, understanding material degradation, and developing direct recycling strategies for lithium-ion batteries. His practical expertise includes a wide range of physicochemical and electrochemical characterization techniques, allowing for a deeper understanding of material interactions and addressing the challenges of future battery technologies.
