Lab News

Joseph William Burnett, a PhD researcher from our collaborating lab in the University of Aberdeen has successfully completed his 2-week visit. A lot wonderful work and discussions are ongoing on catalysis and life cycle assessment. Thanks Joe and Xiaodong!

The Accelerated Materials Development Programme http://acceleratedmaterials.org/ formally kicked off! Dr. Wang is serving as the Deputy Program Director to organize many initiatives of machine learning in materials science.

Dr. Wang organized with the team a workshop on “AI for MatSci”. 144 attendees from A*STAR and IHLs found the hands-on workshop useful to build up a ML knowledge, enhance programming skills and apply them in classic domains. The next workshop is planned 16 November, 2018 at NUS. Keep tuned and we look forward to seeing you there!

Accelerated Materials Development Workshop #1: August 31, 2018

Our SSE group summer BBQ! A fun night at the NUS Kent Vale residence. Congrats on the graduation of our first batch of undergraduate researchers! Best luck with your career and the academic family is always here.

Three talented students exchanged from the U.S. (UIUC and JHU) had a wonderful time under Dr. Wang's supervision in our Smart Systems Engineering group. Good job Julie, Zhe and Chole, It is great to see the women power in engineering:) Welcome to join us in the SERIUS summer research attachment programme.

Part of our team visited the Model Factory@SIMTech to learn how the Industry 4.0 and AI technologies are promoting industry development. We will have continuous collaboration with A*STAR's Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech) through research projects and students training.

Dr. Wang attended the 10th World Congress of Chemical Engineering (WCCE10) and 27th European Symposium on Computer-Aided Process Engineering (ESCAPE-27) - held at Barcelona, Spain, and presented a talk on “Waste-Energy-Water systems in sustainable city development using the resilience.io platform”.

Dr. Wang was invited to the Applied Energy Symposium and Forum: REM2017 in Tianjin and organized a panel entitled "From clean energy research into innovation" with worldwide energy researchers.
