Emma London

Emma is a driven DPhil student passionate about advancing transformative research in the energy sector through battery innovation. Motivated by the global transition towards net-zero emissions by 2050, her project focuses on developing next-generation lithium-air batteries. She graduated from the University of Nottingham with First Class Honours in MSci Chemistry, completing a master's project in heterogeneous photocatalysis using earth-abundant and renewable resources for applications in sustainable chemistry. As part of her degree, Emma also undertook an industrial placement at a printed electronics company, gaining hands-on experience in the development and characterisation of advanced energy materials such as photovoltaics and biosensors.  Outside of research, Emma enjoys hiking, running, and rowing, and is often exploring the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District.
