Dr. Marszewski is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Toledo. He received a Ph.D. degree in the field of Chemistry from the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Kent State University and a M.Sc. degree in the field of Chemistry from the Faculty of Advanced Technologies and Chemistry at Military University of Technology. Before joining the University of Toledo, Dr. Marszewski was a Postdoctoral Scholar in Prof. Laurent Pilon’s research group at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Dr. Marszewski has engaged in cutting-edge research of nanoporous materials for energy and environmental applications since he was a master's student. To date, his work resulted in 30 peer-reviewed publications, two patent applications, nine conference presentations, and one invited seminar.
In his spare time, Dr. Marszewski enjoys hiking, reading about black holes, dark matter and energy, and the future of the Universe, and binge watching Numberphile and The Royal Institution.
