I am a BASF research fellow. And I am also a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Colorado Boulder. My research focuses on interfacial engineering, understanding and application of nanomaterials by combining experimental methodologies and multi-scale simulations. Specific interests include: nanocatalysts for clean energy conversion and fuel cell techniques, understanding of reaction kinetics and molecular interactions, carbon nanomaterials and nanocomposites with multi-functions, ordered self-assemblies for molecular recognition and biomineralization, and further development and application of INTERFACE force field (IFF).
