Mouad Dahbi, is an Associate Professor in Materials Science, Energy and Nanoengineering (MSN) Department at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University since September 2017. Received Maitrise degree (2007) in chemical engineering from Tangier Faculty Science and Technique, Morocco. Graduated top of the class from Lille 1 University Science and Technology in 2009. He earned Ph.D. (January 2013) in Chemistry and Electrochemistry from the University François Rabelais, France where his doctoral work was focused on the high-power asymmetric lithium-ion capacitor in nonaqueous electrolytes. He was then a postdoctoral researcher at Tokyo University of Science. In 2015, Dahbi was promoted to Assistant Professor at Tokyo University of Science and a Project Assistant Professor at Kyoto University, Japan. His work was focused on developing materials for negative electrodes and electrolytes for lithium-, sodium- and potassium-ion batteries, synthesis and characterisation of materials and electrochemical evaluation of synthesized materials with due correlation. His current research focuses on developing high-energy density electrode materials system for efficient energy storage technology and low-cost batteries based on the abundant elements in Earth’s Crust. Professor Dahbi has authored/co-authored over 80 Peer Reviewed Articles. He is also an external expert in French National Research Agency (ANR), RSIF PhD scholarship expert reviewer (PASET), and peer reviewer of many journals: Electrochemistry Communications (ELSEVIER), Advanced Energy Materials (WILEY-VCH Verlag), ACS Applied Material Interface (American Chemical Society), Chemistry Letters (Chemical Society of Japan), Journal of Materials Chemistry A (Royal Society of Chemistry).
