Kelsey Stoerzinger is an American chemist who is an associate professor at the University of Minnesota. Her research considers the design of materials and processes for renewable energy storage. She is interested in the design of sustainable catalysts that make use of earth abundant materials. She was awarded the 2025 American Chemical Society Marks-Ipatieff Prize.

Early life and education

Stoerzinger is from Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. She attended Eagan High School, where she became "captivated" by the oboe. She was an undergraduate student at Northwestern University, where she was an oboe major, but decided to switch major after seeing so many leading women scientists. She eventually worked in the laboratory of Teri W. Odom, where she developed surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. She spent a summer interning at Dow Corning and another at General Motors. During her undergraduate studies, she was awarded a Churchill Scholarship to spend a year at the University of Cambridge, where she worked with a spin echo spectrometer. She moved to Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a graduate student, where she studied the catalytic activity of oxides with Yang Shao-Horn. As a doctoral student, she was recognized by the Materials Research Society for her efforts to identify optimized oxides. Specifically, she looked to understand the relationship between the structure and function of oxides. Stoerzinger joined Pacific Northwest National Laboratory as a postdoctoral fellow, where she studied photo-electrochemical and electrochemical interfaces. In 2018 she became a staff scientist at PNNL.

Research and career

Stoerzinger was an assistant professor at Oregon State University in 2019. She worked on water splitting and the development of chlorine-containing byproducts. She was awarded a United States Department of Energy Early Career Award to design new catalysts for ammonia production. In 2023, Stoerzinger joined the University of Minnesota. Stoerzinger combines X-ray and vibrational spectroscopy to better understand the steady-state and operational properties of electrodes used in electrocatalysis.
