Ph.D. (Ruhr-Universität Bochum)

Li Huaiguang, the assistant professor of School of Science and Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen. Dr. Li graduated from the University of Bochum (Germany) in October 2016. He has conducted post-doctoral research at the University of Bochum (RESOLV Fellow) and the Technical University of Munich. In 2021, he joined the University of Cambridge to develop research on novel carbon dioxide adsorbents and applied for one patent, some of his scientific and technological achievements are being prepared for commercial project conversion. 

He has published as first author or corresponding author in Chem, Nat. Commun., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Chem. Sci., Adv. Energy Mater. He focuses on cross-cutting areas such as fuel cells, enzymatic reactions, CO₂ adsorption and biosensors. He is currently serving as an overseas junior editorial board member of Tungsten.
