Biography
Dr Marzi Barghamadi is a Research Scientist at CSIRO Manufacturing leading Battery Materials and Design Team. The Team includes scientists, postdoctoral fellows, and students working on different aspects of lithium ion/ metal batteries to support Australian and international industries in solving their scientific and technical challenges, and to contribute to future scientists’ education in the area. Her research interests are electrolytes formulation and optimisation (including ionic liquids), modified separators, modified electrode fabrication/ composition/ surface, cell electrochemical studies and customised cell fabrication for both lithium metal (mainly Li-S) and lithium ion batteries. Marzi has received multiple prestigious awards such as 2020 L'Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science Fellowship, 2021 Victoria Fellowship in Physical Sciences, and 2021 Clean Energy Council’s Chloe Munro Scholarship.
Furthermore, she is a member of Australian Battery Society (ABS) since 2022 and supporting ABS for events and preparing newsletter materials.
Other Interests
Marzi is supporting women's career in science through her involvement in Women in Chemistry (WinC) Group- Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI) Victoria since 2014. The WinC aims to promote networking and skills development opportunities for people working in chemical sciences, especially women.
She joint the committee in 2014 and promoted to Deputy Chair position in 2018. Marzi was leading the team as WinC Committee Chair in 2019 when the group was positioned "Number One” RACI Victoria Branch Group of the Year 2019, for the first time since WinC has founded.
Her other professional memberships are RACI since 2018 and International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE) in 2018.
