Background Information: 

Wang Shuo, Assistant Professor, at Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo. He obtained his bachelor's degree from Jilin University in 2015 and his doctoral degree from Peking University in 2020. He subsequently conducted postdoctoral research at the University of Maryland, College Park, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research focuses on using first-principles calculations, molecular dynamics simulations, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to accelerate the design of energy materials, including electrode materials, solid-state electrolyte materials, catalytic materials, and novel two-dimensional materials. To date, he has published more than 50 SCI papers in journals such as Nat. Catal., Nat. Chem., Nat. Nanotechnol., Nat. Commun., Angew. Chem., J. Am. Chem. Soc., PNAS, Adv. Mater, Energy Environ. Sci., with over 3,200 citations, of which 6 papers have been selected as highly cited papers in ESI.


Research Field:

• Theoretical design of electrolyte and electrode materials for all-solid-state batteries.

• Multi-scale simulations of interfaces at solid-solid, solid-liquid, and solid-gas interfaces.

• Development of new energy materials assisted by artificial intelligence (property prediction models, reaction pathway prediction models, material generation models).
