Wanyu Deng

Postdoctoral Researcher

I earned my PhD degree at Tianjin University under the guidance of Prof. Jinlong Gong, focusing on kinetic mechanisms of CO2/CO reduction. In 2020, I conducted 2-year research with Prof. Seger as an exchange student at the Technical University of Denmark. I am currently working with Prof. Jiao on electrochemical reduction of CO2/CO to acetate.
