Borui is an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (ARC DECRA) Fellow in the Research School of Chemistry at the Australian National University, commencing in August 2026, where he will lead the ANU Battery Laboratory. He received his PhD from ANU, following master’s training at the University of Texas at Austin and New York University, and a bachelor’s degree from Central South University. Prior to joining ANU, he held a postdoctoral research position at the University of Sydney. He is currently a Review Editor for Frontiers in Chemistry and serves as a reviewer for more than ten international journals in the fields of energy materials and electrochemistry. His research spans electrochemical energy storage, electrocatalysis, and functional materials, with publications in leading journals including Energy & Environmental Science, Advanced Energy Materials, ACS Nano, and Nano Letters, etc. His current program at ANU aims to establish innovative research directions in all-solid-state batteries, alkali-metal-ion batteries, and lithium-metal battery systems. The ANU Battery Laboratory continuously recruits outstanding PhD and research Master’s/Honours students, and welcomes enquiries from visiting scholars with interests in energy materials and electrochemistry.
