“I am pleased to announce that I have been awarded the Oxford Berlin Research Partnership Early Career Researcher Mobility Fellowship. This exceptional opportunity has enabled me to join the Energy Storage and Carriers group, led by Dr. BINJIAN NIE, at the Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford.

Collaborating with Dr. Binjian Nie and his distinguished team has allowed me to explore new perspectives, contribute to ongoing projects in the field of renewable energy systems and investigate new avenues of collaboration between Oxford and TU Berlin to strengthen research partnerships and explore the potential for future collaborative projects.

Oxford enriches my experience, providing me the opportunity to immerse myself in the rich academic traditions of this prestigious university while surrounded by centuries-old architecture.

I look forward to deepening my contribution to this esteemed community and continuing the work we have initiated.”
