This researcher works on hydrogen fuel cell and water electrolyzer technology, focusing on how to manage water and gas flow inside these devices to make them more efficient. A recurring theme is designing bio-inspired flow channels and porous layers that mimic natural structures (like leaf veins) to improve oxygen delivery, water removal, and reactant distribution. The work combines engineering design with detailed imaging techniques to study these materials at very small scales.
Publication output grew from none in the late 2010s to a steady pace of about 3-5 outputs per year from 2022 through 2024, indicating a growing and active recent research program.
