Moran Balaish

Moran Balaish is a Junior Research Group Leader in the Chemistry department at TUM (Technical University of Munich) where she is also the group leader for TUMint. Energy Research GmbH. Dr. Balaish’s team seeks to accelerate scientific discoveries and device integration of energy-related ceramic materials via high –throughput automated experimentation workflows, from synthesis to characterization and data interpretation, and their integration with machine learning.

Dr. Balaish is a Material Scientist and a Chemist holding a Ph.D. in Energy Engineering from the Technion (Israel Institute of Technology). After completing her doctorate on the topic of non-aqueous Li-air battery systems, she was a Fulbright postdoctoral fellow in the Electrochemical Materials Laboratory at the department of Material Science and Engineering at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), conducting fundamental study of structure-property-performance of fast solid-state ion conductors for applications beyond batteries, including neuromorphic computing and environmental sensing.
