Work with thought leaders and academic experts from Tsinghua University

As a Sr. Staff Chemical Engineer at American Battery Technology Company (NASDAQ: ABAT), I apply my extensive knowledge and experience in Li-ion battery technology to develop hydrometallurgical solutions for battery recycling, metal extraction, and mineral resource development. I have worked at ABTC since December 2021, leading and contributing to various projects to improve the battery industry's efficiency, sustainability, and profitability. Before joining American Battery Technology Company, I worked as an Electrochemistry Engineer Technical Specialist and a Senior Systems Engineer at Cummins Inc. I was involved in industrial Li-ion battery cell qualification and forensic analysis, battery module and system integration and validation, battery abusive test, and electrochemical analysis. I also have over 10 years of academic experience in Li-ion battery chemistry, materials science, and electrochemistry. I have completed two postdoctoral positions from Florida State University and National Lab, and one PhD in Physics from Tsinghua University. I have multiple U.S. patents granted and papers published in this field. My core competencies include electrochemistry, materials science, surface chemistry, and battery technology. I am passionate about advancing Li-ion battery technology and addressing the global challenges of energy storage and electrification.

Hello! I'm Zhengmao Lu, an incoming Tenure Track Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at EPFL (starting in February 2023). I am looking to recruit one PhD student to work on fundamental thermofluids research and develop technologies for sustainable cooling in our lab. I am interested in gaining deeper understandings of liquid-gas interfacial transport and leveraging the fundamental knowledge to create high performace cooling solutions for electronics, buildings, and perishable goods. I like to combine experimental and modeling approaches to provide more comprehensive answers to research questions. I have a strong interest in converting lab research into commercializable products. I have previously participated in startup business programs such as [The Engine](https://www.engine.xyz/) and [NE I-Corps](https://innovation.mit.edu/resource/mit-i-corps/).
