Ziqing Wang, Ph.D., is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, working with Prof. A. Shoji Hall. He received his B.S. in Materials Science and Engineering from Central South University, China. He earned his Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from The University of Texas at Austin under the supervision of Prof. C. Buddie Mullins. His current research focuses on interfacial electrochemistry for electrocatalysis and the electrochemical separation of critical materials. Previously, his research centered on electrolyte engineering and fundamental interfacial electrochemistry in aqueous zinc batteries, with an emphasis on understanding charge-transfer kinetics, ion solvation, and crystallographic effects on zinc deposition. His research has resulted in numerous peer-reviewed publications in electrochemistry, energy storage, and materials chemistry. He is a member of the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the Electrochemical Society (ECS). His honors include the ECS Battery Division Student Research Award, the ECS Summer Fellowship, the Chevron Energy Graduate Fellowship, and the Jeff Byers Memorial Graduate Fellowship.
