Professor Wang’s research focuses on the function-led design and synthesis of organic materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion, supporting the global transition to net-zero carbon emissions. Recognized in Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe, he has also received the Energy Sector Award and the Horizon Prize from the Royal Society of Chemistry, as well as the Future Faculty Award from the American Chemical Society. His work explores the fundamental correlations between nanoconfined ionic and molecular transport and material structures across scales, from atomic to macroscopic. Research areas include: 1. Synthesis of ion-conducting polymers with complex architectures (block, star, dendritic and sequence-defined) through precise monomer design and controlled, living polymerization; 2. Synthesis of redox-active organic molecules for redox flow batteries; 3. Engineering of material structures at all length scales, from covalent to higher-order structures (microporosity, self-assembled microstructures, and interfaces in multicomponent composites); and 4. Electrochemical technologies, particularly aqueous redox flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage, proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, and anion-exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzers for green hydrogen production.
