Biography
Dr. Yi-Chun Lu received her B.S. in Materials Science & Engineering from National Tsing Hua University in 2007 and her Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2012. After her graduate study, she worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of ÀË»¨Ö±²¥ at the Technische Universität München (2012-2013).
She joined The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in 2013 as an Assistant Professor and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2018. Her research interest centers on developing fundamental understandings and material design principles for clean energy storage and conversion.
In particular, Yi-Chun's research group focuses on electrode and electrolyte design for high-energy metal-air and metal-sulfur batteries; redox-active components and solution chemistry for redox-flow batteries; and mechanistic understanding of interfacial phenomena governing electrochemical energy conversion and storage processes.
She is the Founding Member of the Young Academy of Science of Hong Kong and was the recipient of the Hong Kong SAR Research Grants Council Early Career Award (2014), Young Researchers Award (2016), University Education Award (2016) and United College Early Career Research Excellence Award (2018).
