The Electrochemistry and Materials Science Lab team's goal is to do world-leading and world-changing research while providing an positive educational environment that launches meaningful and rewarding careers. Our work spans engineering, chemistry, materials science and more.
Prof. Boettcher’s UC email is boettcher@berkeley.edu and his LBNL email is sboettcher@lbl.gov. His office is Gilman 212. Prof. Boettcher recieves much email. If you email him and do not hear back in three days, and it is important, send a reminder!
The Boettcher lab at University of Oregon transitioned to UC Berkeley and LBNL in January 2024. Prof. Boettcher was the founding Director of the Oregon Center for Electrochemistry and the accelerated MS program in Electrochemical Science and Technology/EngineeringWe have launched the first phase of the Electrochemistry Academy at UC Berkeley through CESET, the Center for Electrochemical Science, Engineering, and Technology.
Interest in postdoctoral, PhD, visiting scholar, or undergraduate research opportunities should be communicated to the UC email and in consideration for appointments at UCB or LBNL. Because Prof. Boettcher recieves a large volume of requests and inquiries, he may not respond to each one.
Postdoctoral candidates are encouraged to seek out external fellowship funding for work at UC Berkeley.
Laboratory Principles
The Boettcher group strives to create an inclusive, respectful environment to support a diverse community of students, staff, and faculty. We believe in helping every member achieve personal and professional growth to the maximum exent possible. We welcome and encourage talented and motivated individuals of all racial, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds, nationalities, political or religous beliefs, and all sexual orientations, gender identities, disabilities, to join us here in Berkeley in our pursuit of advancing electrochemical science and technology to drive positive impact in our world!
