Zijing Xia got his bachelor degree in material science from Tsinghua University at 2017, and is pursuing PhD degree at molecular engineering at UChicago from 2017 till now. His research focuses on understanding the ionic transport process in aqueous system through nanoscale channels. I have 5 years’ experience in developing advanced materials for water treatment and membrane modification, and 2 years’ experience in electrocatalysis.
