Frank Abild-Pedersen
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioDr. Abild-Pedersen is the co-director of SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis. He is leading a research team that focuses on developing an understanding of the factors determining the catalytic properties at the interface between gas/solvent and solid surfaces and to apply these insights to processes and catalysts of importance for energy transformations and for sustainable chemical production. His research takes advantage of computer facilities at SLAC and Stanford to gain the necessary understanding and to link these simulations to experiments where new catalyst synthesis methods are developed, and the catalyst materials are characterized both in terms of performance (activity, selectivity, durability, etc.) and in terms of geometrical and electronic structure. The underlying philosophy of his research is that by having a fundamental understanding of the way surfaces catalyze a chemical reaction we can make a quantum leap in our ability to make predictions for new catalysts and processes. This requires the development of a theory of heterogeneous catalysis, including electrocatalysis, based on computational and experimental results.
Dr Abild-Pedersen has extensive experience with simulations and modeling of chemical reactions. His work began with the derivation of energy correlations in catalysis that have helped speed up screening for active, selective and stable catalysts for energy conversion as a graduate student working with Professor Jens K. Nørskov at the Technical University of Denmark. He moved to SLAC in 2010 as a staff scientist and helped build up SUNCAT and define research directions in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. -

Roberto Alonso-Mori
Lead Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioRoberto Alonso-Mori is a Lead Scientist and Head of the Biological Sciences (BIO) Department at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. The BIO department supports a broad range of structural biology and biochemistry research by enabling high-impact user experiments and developing advanced capabilities for X-ray science at the frontiers of biological discovery. He also serves as the Lead for the Biochemistry and Condensed Phase Chemistry (B&CPC) Group. This group leads experiments focused on ultrafast photochemical dynamics in the condensed phase across multiple LCLS instruments using cutting-edge spectroscopy and scattering techniques. The department and group play key roles in driving scientific innovation through the LCLS Scientific Research and Development (SRD) Division, leading and contributing to the development of new experimental approaches, multimodal capabilities, and emerging applications in ultrafast bioscience and chemistry.
Dr. Roberto Alonso-Mori joined SLAC in 2009 after earning a Bachelor’s degree in Physics from the University of Oviedo (Spain), a Master of Science in Physics from the University of Grenoble (France), and a Ph.D. in Earth Sciences from the University of Camerino (Italy). His graduate research was conducted at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France. He began his SLAC career as a Research Associate supporting both SSRL and LCLS, and has since held various roles leading to his current positions in departmental and scientific leadership. -
