Jiaqi Miao (苗佳麒)

Biography

I received my bachelor's degree in Process Equipment and Control Engineering (School of Chemical Engineering) from Dalian University of Technology (DUT). Now, I am pursuing my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), with research focusing on interfacial phenomena, soft matter, bionics, smart manufacturing, and fluid mechanics. I have published 10+ first-author papers in prestigious journals, such as ACS Nano, Advanced Science, Advanced Functional Materials, Nano Letters, and Engineering. Moreover, I serve as a peer reviewer for 20+ academic journals, and also an active member of the American Physical Society (APS), the American Chemical Society (ACS), the International Society of Bionic Engineering (ISBE), and the Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society (CMES).
