Why do you want to join the DiveIn community?
I am from one of the underrepresented ethnic groups, and would like to join DivrIn to share my knowledge, and support others from underrepresented backgrounds.
Personal profile:

In our group, “propulsion, electrification & superconductivity”, we work on decarbonisation of the power grid, and transportation systems including Aviation, space applications. We also work on offshore wind systems, including electrolysers and hydrogen production. We try to use superconductivity and artificial intelligence to facilitate reaching net zero.

I invite candidates and young researchers who would care about a sustainable transportation and energy system to work with our group. As explained, we try to shape multidisciplinary research around the main theme of net zero by using cryogenic engineering, superconducting technology, electrical engineering, material engineering, physics, and digitalisation and artificial intelligence techniques.

I am a type of supervisor who spend time with the students and PGRs and I am very passionate about helping them to grow and bring them to their maximum of potential during the PhD program. My method project management is to bring the questions for the students to help them and allow them to be more creative. I appreciate interactions during meetings as well as punctuality in delivery.
We are very open to collaborate with all those who would like to be part of a sustainable and inclusive future.
