Mengyao Liu
Ph.D. Student in Classics, admitted Autumn 2022
Ph.D. Minor, Computer ScienceBioI am broadly interested in the production of knowledge in ancient worlds, with a particular interest in the Greco-Roman and Chinese traditions. My curiosity is a comparative and genealogical one at root: by comparing different societies, I seek to grasp the historicity of intellectual practices and the ideas thus produced. Currently, my research interest focuses on astronomy and astrology in Ancient Greece and China.
While completing my B.A. in Classics at Sorbonne University, I investigated how the urban metamorphoses of Rome materialized the transformation of the political regime. My master's thesis at EHESS, "Statues pour les corps, livres pour les mots" : La vie (βἰος) et la rhétorique (λόγος) dans les Discours Sacrés, offers insight into the psychosomatic relations conceived by the Greeks. The inquiry breaks into two interdependent questions: the therapeutic usage of rhetorical practices and the unconventional representation of Asclepius in the Sacred Tales of Aristides.
Having one year of training in software engineering from Tsinghua University, I am also passionate about the potentials of digital humanities. -

Tianying Liu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Mechanical Engineering
BioDr. Tianying Liu is currently a Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University, focusing on the development of scalable, low-Iridium loading catalysts for cost-effective and durable PEM water electrolyzers. He earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Boston College in 2025, where his dissertation research investigated water oxidation mechanisms on Iridium dinuclear heterogeneous catalysts. During his doctoral studies, he served as an ALS Doctoral Fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, applying synchrotron-based ex situ and in situ soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy to uncover the structural dynamics of Iridium catalyst electrodes during water oxidation.
Before his doctoral work, Dr. Liu completed his M.S. and B.S. degrees in Materials Science and Engineering at Central South University. His earlier research experience includes developing Mo-based electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution, engineering lithium-ion battery cathodes via atomic layer deposition at ShanghaiTech University, and characterizing molybdenum carbide catalysts as a visiting researcher at Northwestern University. His research interests broadly cover electrocatalysis, photoelectrochemistry, energy conversion, and materials design, with a strong focus on renewable energy applications. -
