Marek B. Majewski is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Concordia University and member of the Centre for NanoScience Research, Centre for Research in Multiscale Modelling, the Centre Québécois sur les Matériaux Fonctionnels (CQMF), and a Senior Visiting Fellow and the University of New South Wales. He completed his BSc at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon (2007) before traveling to Vancouver to complete his PhD under Prof. Michael Wolf at the University of British Columbia (2013). Prior to joining Concordia University in 2018, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Northwestern University (Evanston, IL, USA) and the Argonne-Northwestern Solar Energy Research (ANSER) Center working with Profs. Michael Wasielewski, Joseph Hupp, and Omar Farha where he also served as the Assistant Director of Operations and Outreach. The Solar Energy Conversion Group at Concordia has been working towards developing and optimizing functionalized nanostructured semiconductor surfaces that act as the working electrode in sensitized photoelectrochemical cells, studying the growth mechanisms of semiconductor nanocrystals, and quantifying the optoelectronic properties of a wide range of inorganic materials.
