Xining Zang received her B.E. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2012. She has been pursuing her PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering from UC Berkeley since 2012.

Her research background is in both materials science and mechanical engineering, which span the areas of nanomaterials, micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) , and electrochemistry. In particular, my research focuses on synthesis, manufacturing, and engineering of low dimensional materials including carbon nanotube (1D), graphene (2D), and other 2D materials for energy storage, optical sensing, and electrochemical catalytic applications.
