Right after ICME-2024, XXII Mendeleev congress took place at Sirius University in Sochi, Russia. As part of the conference, there was a symposium on "Actual problems of energy conversion for lithium electrochemical systems", which was attended by members of our research team.

- Dmitry Aksyonov gave an invited lecture “Atomistic modeling of interfaces and ionic transport in metal-ion batteries”;

- Anton Boev made an oral presentation “First-principles study of surface segregation in LiCoO₂”.

The rest of the team presented posters:

- Arseniy Burov with “Computational modeling of cooperative diffusion of Li+ ions in garnet-type structures using molecular dynamics with machine learning potentials”;

- Nikita Davydov with “Impact of high symmetry grain boundaries on transport and oxygen release in LiNiO2;

- Maria Solovieva with “The study of defects interaction in disordered carbon anode materials”.

Also Andrey Geondzhian took part in the conference remotely with a presentation on the topic “Electronic structure of cathode materials: insights from theoretical spectroscopy”.

Book of abstracts can be downloaded at the following link (volume 4, p.228-310).

We had a very productive week, attending conference presentations and enjoying the warm southern weather by the Black Sea.
