- Dr. Jan Bitenc<\/strong> (National Institute of Chemistry, Slovenia) provided a historical overview of battery<\/strong> development, discussing key performance metrics and alternative technologies that could replace lithium-ion batteries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
It is difficult to single out all worth noting lectures as all the invited speakers were outstanding. They openly shared the significance of their fields, the opportunities they present, common mistakes, and the seminal works that led to breakthroughs. Beyond the lectures, students engaged in discussions with the speakers during a debate on the future of physical chemistry and attended a session led by Dr. Stepan Shipovskov from Eastman Chemical Company, which provided insights into an industrial R&D career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
