The Rational Design of More Active Catalysts: Kelsey Stoerzinger

To increase the efficiency of fuel cells and other electrochemical devices, mix materials science with surface physics, then add spectroscopic approaches

(April 2019)

Kelsey Stoerzinger—engineer, researcher, teacher, mentor—is one of more than a hundred researchers who have joint appointments at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).

The onetime college music major—now a rising world star in catalysis and chemistry research—was named a scientist at PNNL in September, and is affiliated with the laboratory's Institute for Integrated Catalysis (IIC). Before then, she had been a Linus Pauling Postdoctoral Fellow at PNNL from 2016 to 2018. Read more ...
