Chemistry Ph.D. Candidate Elahe Moazzen Receives 2018 Crystallography Scholarship

Date

Chemistry Ph.D. candidate Elahe Moazzen has won a 2018 Ludo Frevel Crystallography Scholarship and will receive $2,500 to assist in the continuation of her crystallographic research. She is one of 10 students awarded this year, selected on a competitive basis by the International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD) scholarship committee. Moazzen will be pursuing her research project entitled โ€œLattice Templating and Galvanic Coupling Effects on the Electrochemical Performance of Core/Shell Battery Materials.โ€ Moazzen works in the Segre group in the area of cost-effective, high-capacity alkaline battery research. The ICDD has awarded 201 scholarships since 1991 (made possible by donations from both individuals and corporations). The scholarship honors Ludo K. Frevel (1910โ€“2011), who joined The Dow Chemical Company Spectroscopy Laboratory in 1936 and until retirement, was one of Dowโ€™s top scientists.
