Jeff Gostick

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.
