Une sommit\u00e9 dans son domaine, Jeff Dahn travaille \u00e0 cr\u00e9er des batteries aux ions de lithium qui dureront des dizaines d\u2019ann\u00e9es. Il est reconnu \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle mondiale comme un pionnier des batteries que l\u2019on utilise maintenant pour alimenter une foule d\u2019objets, des outils aux voitures \u00e9lectriques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Souhaitant tout simplement \u00ab faire quelque chose d\u2019utile \u00bb dans son laboratoire, Jeff Dahn a toujours fusionn\u00e9 la science et le g\u00e9nie de fa\u00e7on magistrale pour donner corps \u00e0 sa vision. Professeur au D\u00e9partement de physique et des sciences de l\u2019atmosph\u00e8re et au D\u00e9partement de chimie de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Dalhousie, il veille constamment \u00e0 ce que ses d\u00e9couvertes puissent \u00eatre appliqu\u00e9es pour am\u00e9liorer le sort de l\u2019humanit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00c0 cet effet, il a toujours entretenu de solides liens avec l\u2019industrie. Durant son passage \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Simon-Fraser dans les ann\u00e9es 1990, il a travaill\u00e9 en \u00e9troite collaboration avec l\u2019\u00e9quipe de recherche et d\u00e9veloppement de NEC Moli Energy Canada (maintenant E-One Moli Energy Canada). De 1996 \u00e0 2016, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 titulaire de la Chaire de recherche industrielle CRSNG-3M Canada sur les mat\u00e9riaux perfectionn\u00e9s pour accumulateurs de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Dalhousie. Il a ensuite conclu un partenariat de recherche avec Tesla, qui se poursuivra au moins jusqu\u2019en 2026. Il est actuellement titulaire de la Chaire de recherche industrielle CRSNG Tesla-Canada, qui repr\u00e9sente l\u2019unique partenariat universitaire conclu par Tesla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chercheur remarquable, Jeff Dahn est aussi un professeur et un mentor exceptionnel. Il est profond\u00e9ment engag\u00e9 envers les prochaines g\u00e9n\u00e9rations d\u2019\u00e9tudiantes et d\u2019\u00e9tudiants, et tire une immense satisfaction \u00e0 voir la rel\u00e8ve mettre \u00e0 profit les connaissances qu\u2019elle a acquises pour apporter des changements positifs dans le monde. Il s\u2019est vu d\u00e9cerner des prix d\u2019enseignement de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Simon-Fraser et de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Dalhousie, ainsi que la m\u00e9daille pour l\u2019excellence en enseignement de l\u2019Association canadienne des physiciens et des physiciennes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La productivit\u00e9 de Jeff Dahn \u00e0 titre de chercheur et d\u2019inventeur est l\u00e9gendaire. Il a co\u00e9crit plus de 750 articles r\u00e9vis\u00e9s par les pairs et particip\u00e9 \u00e0 la conception de 73 inventions brevet\u00e9es ou en instance de l\u2019\u00eatre. Depuis les ann\u00e9es 1990, on lui a accord\u00e9 quantit\u00e9 de distinctions, notamment, en 2016, l\u2019un des premiers Prix du gouverneur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral pour l\u2019innovation jamais d\u00e9cern\u00e9s, en 2017, la M\u00e9daille d\u2019or Gerhard-Herzberg en sciences et en g\u00e9nie, qui est l\u2019un des plus prestigieux prix scientifiques au Canada, et, en 2020, le titre d\u2019Officier de l\u2019Ordre du Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
