Research Associate

Stephen O'Neill received his integrated MEng in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh in 2020. He undertook his MEng research at Stanford University with Prof. Zhenan Bao, developing organic electronic materials. Stephen is currently working on the synthesis and development of organic electrolytes for redox flow batteries.
