Dr. Huiwen Ji earned her Ph.D. in Chemistry at Princeton University, where she specialized in the solid-state chemistry of binary and ternary chalcogenides, a field intricately tied to quantum properties and topological surface states. This rigorous academic background laid the foundation for her subsequent research endeavors, blending quantum physics, materials chemistry, and structure-property relationships in solid-state functional materials. In her roles as a Postdoctoral Scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, and a Research Scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, she further delved into the nuances of advanced material science. Recognized for her significant contributions, Dr. Ji has received accolades such as the ACS PRF Doctoral New Investigator Award and the NSF CAREER Award. She currently serves as a faculty member at the University of Utah.
