Scholar Profile
Shira Haber’s PhD in Chemistry at the Weizmann Institute of Science’s Department of Molecular Chemistry and Material Science used solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to study how chemical processes at the cathode-electrolyte interface in lithium-ion batteries control ionic transport across interfaces.
Dr. Haber also used NMR to investigate polymer microstructure and deconstruction in her postdoctoral research, which she conducted both in the Materials Science Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California, and in the Department of Chemistry at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.
At Bar-Ilan University’s Department of Chemistry, Dr. Haber continues her NMR research into polymer materials, hoping to better understand material deconstruction, and eventually to replace current recycling efforts with innovative solutions that could propel the field towards a more sustainable future.
