About Us
The Wilson Laboratory is an interdisciplinary research group working at the intersection of chemistry, physics, and engineering to address fundamental challenges in energy conversion and storage. Our research seeks to understand and control the interconversion of chemical and electrical energy, with an emphasis on electrocatalysis, nanomaterials, and advanced spectroscopy and microscopy.
Our team brings together graduate and undergraduate researchers with diverse backgrounds and expertise. We are committed not only to advancing fundamental science, but also to training the next generation of scientists through interdisciplinary research, collaboration, and hands-on experience with cutting-edge analytical tools.
Join Us!
We are always looking for motivated and passionate people to join our research team. Prospective students and postdoctoral researchers are encouraged to send Prof. Wilson an email (aj.wilson [at] louisville.edu) to discuss available research opportunities.
