Sabri Elatresh is a postdoc at Cornell University. He is currently working with Roald Hoffmann and Neil Ashcroft on structure prediction and phase stability of solid Li at high pressure. He obtained his Ph.D. from Dalhousie University in 2015 under the supervision of Stanimir Bonev.  Sabri's area of research has focused on the application and development of ab initio techniques to predict the phase diagrams of materials at high pressure. In particular, he has studied the properties of compressed lithium and oxygen.
