Shanghai Tech University
Dr. Shengjie
Ling is currently an assistant professor and PI in School of Physical Science
and Technology at ShanghaiTech University. He is also a research affiliate at MIT and Tufts University. He
obtained his B.S. from the Zhejiang
University of Technology, Hangzhou, China, and PhD from Fudan University,
Shanghai, China. During 2012-2013, He awarded the State Scholarship Fund to
pursue his study at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, as a joint PhD student. He did a postdoc training at MIT and Tufts
University before joining ShanghaiTech University in September 2017. His current
research interests lie at the intersection of smart fiber science and engineering,
specifically fiber devices and biological
fibers. His work involves using synchrotron characterization
and computational modeling to understand
structure-property-function relationships of natural and synthetic fibers and developing bioinspired & biomimetic fibers
for electronic, environmental and biomedical applications.
