<p class="Paragraph SCXW87617839 BCX0"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW87617839 BCX0">The Electrocatalytic Synthesis and Electrochemical Interfaces group envisions a future in which renewable electricity powers not only homes and transportation, but also the production of chemicals, fertilizers, and materials. To make this possible, the group develops electrochemical technologies that convert abundant molecules into valuable products through highly selective and energy-efficient reactions.</span><span class="EOP Selected SCXW87617839 BCX0"> </span></p>
