Lisa Laa is a PhD student at the Catalonia Institute for Energy Research (IREC) in Barcelona, focusing on the development of bifunctional catalyst materials for cathodes in zinc-air batteries. She holds a bachelor’s and master’s degree from Vienna University of Technology, where she specialized in applied analytical and physical chemistry. Her research combines the synthesis of material libraries, advanced materials characterization, and machine learning-based modeling to predict material properties. With strong experience in analytical techniques for electrochemical devices, she is eager to broaden her expertise through experimentation and interdisciplinary collaboration.
