Research interests: porous materials, electrodes, energy storage
Jeff Gostick is the Azzam-Dullien Professor in Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo where he runs the Porous Materials Engineering & Analysis Lab. His research is centered around understanding the structure-performance relationship in porous electrodes used in hydrogen fuel cell, redox flow systems, zinc-air cells, Li-ion batteries, and super-capacitors. His group uses a combination experimental characterization, novel production methods, and advanced custom computational tools. He is the lead developer of the open-source pore network modeling project OpenPNM (openpnm.org), as well as PoreSpy, a tool for porous media image analysis (porespy.org). Prof Gostick is a licensed professional engineer, has published over 90 journal articles, and was recently named an Emerging Leader by the Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering.
Professor Gostick's current research focuses on measuring, modelling and making porous materials for applications like electrodes for flow batteries. He recently co-authored a paper in Small about the use of X-ray computed tomography (CT) to visualize porous materials in 3D.
He is also the lead developer of two open source software packages. These software packages are vital in his lab team's research into the characterization and analysis of porous material images. You can find out more by clicking here.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
