Jamie Weaver (Fed)

Research Chemist

Dr. Jamie L. Weaver is a Research Chemist at the Material Measurement Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). She serves as the instrument scientist for Neutron Depth Profiling. Her research primarily focuses on metrology for light elements such as lithium (Li), boron (B), nitrogen (N), helium (He), and chlorine (Cl), as well as the resilience of solid-state materials. Throughout her career, Dr. Weaver has significantly contributed to various fields, including lithium-ion batteries, nuclear energy, glass science, and materials durability.

 Dr. Weaver collaborates with researchers across industry, various agencies (such as the Department of Energy, the Smithsonian Institution, and the U.S. Geological Survey), and academia, routinely publishing her findings in peer-reviewed journals. She is a member of the ISO-333 (lithium), a liaison to the SAE International Battery Recycling and Battery Global Traceability Standards committees, and a member of the American Ceramic Society. She has completed a five-year term on the Art, Archaeology, and Conservation Sciences Division board.
