Biography

Materials scientist bridging chemistry, electrochemistry, and soft robotics. During my MSc at Donghua University (2018–2021), I trained in chemical materials and electrochemistry, working on polymer/coordination systems, electrode materials, and device-level testing. My PhD at Université Toulouse III – Paul Sabatier / LCC-CNRS (2021–2024) focused on spin-crossover (SCO) polymers and nanocomposites for soft actuators, including tunable transition temperatures/hysteresis, anisotropy engineering, and self-healing elastomer composites, supported by advanced thermal/magnetic/mechanical characterization. I aim to translate SCO-based functional materials into programmable, energy-efficient soft robotic devices.
