Dr Dorota Matras is a Materials Scientist at UKBIC. She joined the Electrochemistry team in 2023, where she supports customer projects focused on benchmarking battery cell technologies and forensic analysis of novel cell technologies. Additionally, she serves as a technical expert in tomography and data analysis. Prior to this, she spent 3.5 years as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Faraday Institution and Diamond Light Source, focusing on the development of multi-modal imaging and tomography of functional materials at the nanoscale. Her research primarily explored the solid-state chemistry of novel cathode materials used in Li-ion batteries.

Dorota holds a BEng from Warsaw University of Technology and an MSc in Chemical Engineering from École Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Paris. She later moved to the United Kingdom, where she obtained her PhD from the School of Materials at the University of Manchester in 2019. Her doctoral research focused on the application of chemical imaging techniques to study catalytic reactors for methane upgrade processes.
