Lecturer
Department of Materials Science and Engineering
Level 1, Room # 149, 20 Research Way, Clayton
I am a lecturer (teaching and research) in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Monash University, Australia. My interest lies in the intersection of materials science and data science. I work with a small, agile group focused on understanding and intelligently utilising metal resources during the energy transition. Our work spans industry-driven projects that address immediate needs and fundamental research that may create a lasting impact.

Research Topics:

  • Green metal: green iron, steel recycling, green aluminium, advanced alloys, with an emphasis on phase transformations;
  • Machine intelligence for characterisation and ML-driven materials design;

We are currently inviting applications for PhD and Postdoctoral positions starting in January 2026 (see openings):

  1. Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Machine Learning for In Situ Characterisation of Phase Transformation in Green Metals
  2. PhD opportunity on Australian Green Ironmaking (closed)
  3. PhD opportunity on Phase Transformations in Advanced Steel Design (closed)
  4. PhD opportunity on Recycling-Oriented Design of Microalloyed Green Steels (closed)
  5. Postdoc opportunity on Australian Green Ironmaking (closed)
