 On Monday, November 4, [Asem Abdulahad](/people/asem-abdulahad), FAS Dean’s Visiting Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, delivered a lecture entitled "[Engineering polymer-based materials for carbon dioxide capture and lithium battery applications](/event/professor-asem-abdulahad)" in Pfizer Lecture Hall.

 In his talk, Abdulahad discussed his lab's work on developing, synthesizing, and characterizing new materials for lithium metal batteries, small analyte sensing, and carbon dioxide capture technologies. Currently, their primary research thrust is on (1) the synthesis and characterization of solid polymer electrolytes for use in lithium metal batteries and (2) the development of flexible and microporous polymers for carbon dioxide adsorption. In addition, he discussed STEM education at his home university, [XULA](https://www.xula.edu/directory//people/asemabdulahad.html), an HBCU geared towards undergraduate education.
