Background and Experience

Iwnetim (Tim) Abate is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Previously, he was Miller and Presidential Fellow at UC Berkeley (with Professor Mark Asta and Kwabena Bedikao) working on layered materials for application in computing, catalysis, and sensing. His PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University focused on designing high-performance materials for Li- and Na-ion batteries and elucidating their reaction mechanism (with Professor William Chueh and Thomas Devereaux). Before joining Stanford, he was researcher at IBM Alamden and Los Alamos National Laboratory working on metal-air batteries and hybrid perovskite solar cells, respectively.
