About
The Electrocatalysis Workshop is a 3-day short course at Rutgers University – New Brunswick that will combine exciting lectures and laboratory sessions to give our participants strong foundational training in electrochemistry techniques for the study of homogeneous electrocatalysts.
This workshop is designed to introduce participants to both theoretical and practical aspects of electrochemistry. In addition to covering fundamental concepts, our emphasis will be on the electrochemical analysis of homogeneous molecular species and catalysts using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and controlled-potential electrolysis (CPE). We welcome applicants from all levels – undergraduate students, graduate students, postdocs, and faculty are encouraged to apply. No prior experience with electrochemistry is needed to participate in this workshop.
The inaugural Electrocatalysis Workshop will be held on July 28-30, 2025 at Rutgers University – New Brunswick. Both lecture and laboratory activities take place at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology on Busch Campus in Piscataway, NJ.
Topics Covered
Cyclic Voltammetry, Electrocatalysis, Introduction to Electrochemistry, IR Compensation, Potentiostat Operation
Workshop Team
Alex Peroff, PhD
Pine Research Instrumentation
Electrochemical Sales Scientist
Alex Peroff joined the Pine Research team as an Electroanalytical Scientist in 2016. Alex came to Pine Research after earning his Ph.D. at Northwestern University under the direction of Richard Van Duyne and Eric Weitz. Following his doctorate, Alex completed a post-doctoral position at SUNY Albany. Alex resides in the Durham, North Carolina area.
Kate Waldie, PhD
Rutgers University
Assistant Professor
Kate Waldie is an assistant professor at Rutgers University where her research focuses on developing novel transition-metal complexes with targeted reactivity for catalysis for renewable energy conversion applications and sustainable chemical synthesis. She applies concepts from synthetic inorganic and organometallic chemistry coupled with electrochemistry and spectroscopic techniques to prepare, understand, and optimize our systems and their reactivity.
