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. -
Lu Lu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Mechanical Engineering
BioDr. Lu Lu is currently a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University. He received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Ningbo University and Shanghai University in China in 2014 and 2019, respectively. He then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Peking University from 2020 to 2022 before joining Stanford. His research interests focus on solid mechanics, with emphasis on mechanical instabilities, deployable structures, mechanics of intelligent soft materials, plate and shell theories, and nonlocal elasticity. He has published nearly 30 peer-reviewed papers in journals such as PNAS, JMPS, IJSS, AMR, IJMS, JAM, and PRSA, and received the ASME Melville Medal in 2024.
