Marie Curie Research Fellow

I am currently a Marie Curie Research Fellow at the Department of Chemistry at the University of Cambridge in the UK, under the supervision of Dr. Jenny Zhang. I earned both my B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from Harbin Institute of Technology in the People’s Republic of China and received my Ph.D. from Simon Fraser University in 2022. I was honored to be selected as a Dean’s Convocation Medalist in 2022 for my achievements at Simon Fraser University, recognizing my doctoral research there. I also won the Excellent Trainee Award at the 2019 IEEE International Flexible Electronics Technology Conference and the Faculty of Applied Sciences Graduate Fellowship. Before joining SFU, I worked in a government research lab and a relevant company for nine years in China. My research interests include biophotovoltaic, additive manufacturing, printed electronics, bio-inspired devices, and neuromorphic sensing systems.
