CIBI Episode 2 – USC Research: Faculty at the Forefront of Innovation

In Episode 2 of our CIBI Series, we turn the spotlight on the University of South Carolina (USC) faculty driving battery and energy storage research forward.

This episode explores how researchers at different career stages — from early-career innovators to established leaders — are shaping the growth of the Carolina Institute for Battery Innovation (CIBI).

You’ll hear insights from:

Goli Jalilvand – early-career researcher leading fresh approaches in energy storage innovation
Xinyu Huang – mid-career faculty member advancing applied battery science and technology
Ralph White & Adel Nasiri – late-career experts whose decades of research, mentorship, and leadership continue to influence global energy storage research

Key themes covered include:

How diverse perspectives strengthen USC’s research community
The role of faculty in connecting cutting-edge science with industry needs
USC’s long-standing leadership in energy storage research and its central role in CIBI’s growth

This conversation highlights why the University of South Carolina remains a cornerstone of U.S. battery research and how faculty expertise is powering the future of clean energy innovation.
