Supervisor: Master’s Supervisor

Area: 

(1) utilization of biomass derivatives 

(2) electrocatalytic processes for fuel cells or fuel production

Education:

Ph.D.   The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology   Chemistry   2010-2014

Supervisor: Prof. Zhenyang Lin

B.Sc.   Wuhan University   Chemistry   2006-2010

Research interests:

The goal of our research is to understand the mechanism of reactions at surfaces or organometallics at the molecular level. We focus on problems in catalysis and material science. We employ computational techniques to design catalysts based on a fundamental understanding of reaction mechanims.
