 is a world leader in materials science for energy storage. Among her contributions are discoveries
of novel electrolyte/electrode materials and solid-state superionic conductors for both lithium and sodium batteries. Dr. Meng pioneered
the use of cryogenic microscopy for battery materials and invented a few characterization tools such as titration gas chromatography
(TGC) for quantifying “dead” lithium batteries, which significantly enhances the safety of lithium metal battery. Her work
has transformed the ways we can design and manipulate energy storage materials for batteries. Dr. Meng is a Fellow of Electrochemical
Society (FECS), Fellow of Materials Research Society (FMRS) and Fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
She has served as the Chief Scientist for Energy Storage Science at Argonne National Laboratory and director of the Energy Storage Research
Alliance since January 2022. Dr. Meng is also the director of Energy Storage Research Alliance (ESRA), an innovation hub funded in 2024
by US Department of Energy, Office of Science. Dr. Meng served in various professorship roles at the University of California San Diego
between November 2009 and January 2021 and serves as a scientific advisory board member for several startups and public companies, including
Advano, Ensurge Micropower, SES and Shell.

We believe Dr. Meng is
qualified to serve on our board of directors due to her extensive scientific knowledge and experience serving as a scientific advisory
board member.
