We seek PhD students and postdoctoral researchers from diverse academic backgrounds. In pursuing interdisciplinary research that spans fundamental science, technological innovation, and translational applications (see representative projects below), we take a holistic, collaborative approach that integrates experiments, simulations, machine learning, and theory. Prospective students are encouraged to apply to our graduate programs in Mechanical Engineering or Materials Science and Engineering, where they may indicate faculty of interest. For inquiries, please send your CV to zheng@austin.utexas.edu (Please note that not all emails can be replied to)
