Anaya Khan

Background

I am from the Bay Area and am currently a 3rd year undergraduate student studying Physics at UCSB. While most of my time is spent improving my understanding of physics theory, research, and asking different graduate students about their work, I enjoy boxing, trying new foods, spending time with friends, and cycling through comfort TV shows in my free time. I love to learn new things and am excited to see what tomorrow brings!

Research

Anaya worked on analyzing the growth of dendrites within lithium batteries with NMR, and created 3D models for their analysis. Anaya also worked on the construction and freezing of coin cells to mimic similar processes on batteries in space, aiming to understand the effects on the efficiency of their electrochemistry.

Education
