Bio:
Prof. Meng (Stephanie) Shen pursued her PhD in Materials Science and Engineering on nanoscale heat transfer, directed by Prof. Pawel Keblinski at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. After graduation, she joined Northwestern University as a postdoctoral fellow, and completed the pioneering work on the molecular mechanisms of polymeric membrane filtration with Prof. Sinan Keten and Prof. Richard Lueptow. Then she completed the work on physics of electrostatic-driven self-assembly of colloids and emulsion droplets with Prof. Monica Olvera de la Cruz at Northwestern University. She moved on to the University of Chicago, pulled up and completed the work on the computational design of disordered 3D auxetic materials under the direction of Prof. Juan de Pablo, which led to successful computational-experimental collaborations. She started her position as an assistant professor in the Department of Physics at California State University, Fullerton in August, 2020. Research Interests: Computational physics, interfacial heat and mass transfer, electrostatics, data-driven understanding and design of complex materials, polymeric membranes for clean water and green energy.
