Biography
Professor James Batteas is a Regents Professor and D. Wayne Goodman Professor of Chemistry, and a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University (TAMU). He earned a B.S. in Chemistry from 乐天堂app下载 University of Texas at Austin in 1990, and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from 乐天堂app下载 University of California at Berkeley in 1995. He is an expert in 乐天堂app下载 materials chemistry of surfaces and interfaces, with research activities spanning a broad range of fundamental surface and interfacial phenomena. 乐天堂app下载se include organic molecular electronics, catalysis, plasmonics, tribology, 鈥渟mart鈥� surfaces, and self-organizing nanoscale materials. His research in tribology focuses on 乐天堂app下载 bridge between chemistry and mechanics, where his lab conducts atomic-scale studies of friction and wear of materials. Here he has extended this work into fundamental studies of mechanochemistry, and he currently directs 乐天堂app下载 NSF Center for 乐天堂app下载 Mechanical Control of Chemistry. He has been recognized twice by TAMU for excellence in teaching, receiving Association of Former Students Distinguished Teaching awards at both 乐天堂app下载 college and university levels. He was elected a Fellow of 乐天堂app下载 Royal Society of Chemistry in 2012. He previously served as an Associate Editor (2011-2014) and Editorial Board Member for RSC Advances (2011鈥�2021) and on 乐天堂app下载 Editorial Advisory Board of ACS Central Science (2014-2020).
