Professor Matteo Bianchini

Matteo Bianchini studied physics engineering at Politecnico di Milano and obtained his PhD in Solid State Chemistry in 2015 with Prof.Masquelier, Dr.Croguennec and Dr.Suard (LRCS, ICMCB and ILL). He was a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Prof.Ceder at LBNL, working on the design, synthesis, and characterization of materials for Na/K-ion batteries. He was then postdoc at BELLA-KIT (Prof.Janek), where he investigated Ni-rich cathode materials for Li-ion batteries, prior to joining BASF as a lab team leader. In 2021 Matteo obtained the chair of Inorganic Active Materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage at the University of Bayreuth, part of the Bavarian Center for Battery Technology (BayBatt), where his group investigates electrode materials, synthetic methods and analytical tools for next-generation batteries. As of 2025, Matteo is vice-director of BayBatt and ALISTORE co-director. Matteo was recognized with the ERC starting grant and with the Early Career Awards from IBA and ECS Battery Division.
