Dashboard – Battery Zone

About Me:

I live in Oxford with my lovely friends, with whom I cook, eat, chat, travel, wander around together. I am a materials researcher in the day. I am working on 3D printing batteries, then zooming in and take a close look at details of them via some really cool pieces of equipment (resolution smaller than the dimension of a human hair). Besides work, I am an archer. I was a singer in a University band. Now I play ukulele in a park sometimes.
My Typical Day:

I wake up and go downstairs to have breakfast with my friends (2 eggs, bread, fruits, and milk). We share our lives, chat, and laugh. Then I get to work at about 8:30 am, where I do lots of experiments in a lab. Then I have lunch with my colleagues in the park. After that, I go back to the lab to continue experiments, or to the office to look at the results. I normally go home at about 5 pm. Where I meet my friends/housemates. We cook together, share our daily life. I will make sure that I drink enough water (2 liters) in the daytime before I go to bed.
What I'd do with the prize money:

I will book a table in a local coffee/ice-cream shop regularly, where school students could come and chat/ask STEM questions on a regular basis. I think £450 should be enough for about 10 times such events. If you don’t want to talk that day, just come and drink, eat, and listen. The other £50 could be used for advertisement and printing fliers.

Education:

I got a Masters’s degree from Tsinghua University, China. Then I went to Japan Tsukuba University and the National Institution of Materials Sciences (NIMS) to pursue a Doctoral degree. After which, I fly half a planet to come to the University of Oxford to continue my STEM journey as a researcher.
Qualifications:

A level
Work History:

I was a journalist and a broadcast in college.
