About myself
Hello, I'm Gunjoo Kim, currently a post-doctoral researcher in Human-centered Sensing Laboratory (HSL) at ETH. Previously, my research focused on synthesizing advanced catalyst structures (such as single atoms and core–shell) for green hydrogen production and CO2 conversion. At HSL, I am expanding this expertise toward developing gas sensing materials based on atomic-scale design.
