I am currently a Senior Scientist at Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), A*STAR since 2023. I received his B.Eng. degree from Harbin Institute of Technology, China in 2011 and Ph.D. degree from Hanyang University in Republic of Korea in 2017, both in Materials Science and Engineering. After obtaining Ph.D., I firstly worked at Beijing Institute of Technology, China as a postdoctoral fellow. In 2019, I joined NTU as a Research Fellow with Prof. Upadrasta Ramamurty as the supervisor, where later in July 2021 I got promoted to Senior Research Fellow.My main research interest lies in understanding the mechanical behavior, especially in micro- and nano-scale, of advanced metallic materials, which ultimately lead to the optimizations in materials’ mechanical properties and service performance through alloy design and microstructural tailoring. The target materials include high-entropy alloys, additive manufactured (3D-printed) alloys, metallic glasses, etc. I have published papers on Acta Materialia, Journal of Science and Technology, Scripta Materialia etc.I serve as the peer reviwer for journals including Acta Materialia, International Journal of Plasticity, Scripta Materialia, Journal of Alloys and Compounds, Scientific Reports, Journal of Materials Science, etc.
