Group Leader, Chemist Molecular Materials Group in the Materials Science Division, Argonne National Laboratory
Rajeev Assary obtained PhD degree in Computational Chemistry in 2005 from The University of Manchester UK. Rajeev held postdoctoral positions in University of Manchester and Northwestern University prior to joining Argonne National Laboratory in 2009. At present, he is a group leader at Materials Science Division of Argonne National Laboratory. Rajeev also completed Strategic Laboratory Leadership Program (SLLP). Rajeev’s research interests include fundamental and applied aspects of computational modeling based on quantum chemistry and machine learning in catalysis and ‘beyond lithium ion’ energy storage systems. He has published over 150 papers in peer reviewed journals. During 2013-2023, he conducted research as part of Joint Center of Electric Energy Storage (JCESR). At present, he conducts research as part of Consortium for Computational Physics and Chemistry (CCPC), Enerrgy Storage Research Alliance (ESRA), Center for Steel Electrification by Electrosynthesis (C-STEEL), and DROPLETS.
