Biography
r. Li Hong (Colin) received his Bachelor and Ph.D. degrees from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. He was awarded the Singapore Millennium Foundation (SMF) postdoctoral fellowship after graduation. In 2013, he joined the Mechanical Engineering Department at Stanford University as a postdoc where he focused on engineering two dimensional materials for catalyzing energy conversion/storage (affiliated with Center of Sustainable Energy through Catalysis). He also worked with Samsung to develop health monitoring biosensors for wearable devices. Dr. Li Hong joined the School of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering in June 2016 as Assistant Professor, under the Manufacturing Industrial Engineering Cluster.
Research Interest
Electrochemical devices, catalysts, energy conversion and storage
