I am currently a research scientist in battery group of Cabot Corporation(Cabot). Previously I was a research associate in the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) working on static battery system/flow battery project. I got my PhD degree under supervision of Prof. Rongchao Jin at the Department of Chemistry of Carnegie Mellon University in 2021 working with atomically precise metal nanoclusters and their application in electrochemical catalysis. (CMU).

Before my PhD, I got my BE (Bachelor of Engineering) and ME (Master of Engineering) degree in Central South University under supervision of Prof. Jun Liu, working on the design and synthesis of electrode materials for high-performance Lithium/Sodium-ion batteries.

I am also interested in Machine learning techniques. One of my research plan is combining machine learning with traditional chemistry, looking for potential materials for various application, such as electrochemical catalytic/energy storage materials.
