Robert Messinger
Robert J. Messinger is an Associate Professor and the Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Chemical Engineering at The City College of New York (CCNY). He earned a B.S. in chemical engineering from The Ohio State University (2006) and a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara (2012). Afterwards, he studied physical chemistry and electrochemistry at the CNRS, France, first as a European Union Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow in Orléans (2012-2014) and then jointly with the CNRS and Grenoble Institute of Technology (2014-2015). At CCNY, his research group studies electrochemical materials, chemical processes, and multi-phase fluids up from the molecular level for energy storage and recycling. He is an expert in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Prof. Messinger won an NSF CAREER award (2019) and is the Founding Director of the NASA-CCNY Center for Advanced Batteries for Space.
