Biography
Dr. Doudou Zhang was an outstanding ECR in field of (photo)electrochemcial renewable enery conversion. In Dec. 2023, she was awarded the prestigious Macquarie University Research Fellowships(MQRF), a highly competetive honor with a funding success rate of just 8.5% from application over the last six years.
Dr. Doudou Zhang obtained her PhD from Shaanxi Normal University in 2018. During 2018-2019, she spent six months at UNSW as an international exchange PhD student. Subsequently, Zhang began her role as a Research Fellow at ANU in March 2019. She was awarded MQRF and transitioned to Macquarie University in July 2024.
