Early life and education edit
Augustyn was an undergraduate student in materials science at the University of Arizona.[citation needed] She moved to the University of California, Los Angeles for graduate studies, where she completed a doctorate in materials science. Her research considered nanostructure materials for lithium-ion batteries and electrochemical capacitors.[1] After earning her PhD, Augustyn moved to the Materials Institute at University of Texas at Austin. She spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow.[citation needed]
Research and career edit
Augustyn joined North Carolina State University in 2015. Her research considers next-generation energy materials for environmental technologies.[2] These include layered metal oxides, which show potential for electrochemical energy storage materials.[3]
Augustyn joined the Journal of Materials Chemistry A as associate editor in 2021.[4] Together with John Paul Eneku, Augustyn leads SciBridge, a science program that connects scientists in the United States with those working in Africa.[5]
