NSERC Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Electrochemical Technologies and Functional Materials for Environmental Energy Transition

The Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières invites applications for this Chair in the fields of energy, advanced materials, and related disciplines. The research will focus on electrochemical technologies, functional eco‑materials derived from critical and strategic minerals or renewable resources, and their application to the energy and environmental transition.

Research Focus

• Optimization of critical and strategic minerals use in batteries, fuel cells, electrolyzers, etc., while integrating bio‑based materials.
• Study of material aging in operando and assessment of environmental impacts (life cycle analysis, carbon footprint).
• Development of technologies with enhanced performance under extreme climatic conditions.
• Integration of advanced computational methods and ...
