Dohyung Kim is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. He received his B.S. in Materials Science Engineering from Seoul National University in 2012 and his Ph.D. in Materials Science Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 2018. Prior to joining the faculty at Penn Engineering in 2022, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University. His research focuses on gaining fundamental insights into electrochemical processes occurring at solid-liquid interfaces, leveraging knowledge across energy, chemicals, materials, and environmental domains. His work aims to advance the capacity to drive electrochemical reactions at surfaces/interfaces at the nanoscale, addressing critical barriers to the efficiency and broadened applicability of electrochemical reactions in energy supply chains. His anticipated research contributions include the development of new electrocatalyst materials, innovative electrode designs, and advances in electrochemical processes applicable for sustainable energy conversion, storage, and chemical catalysis, with potential applications in electrochemical water splitting, CO2 reduction, and biomass waste conversion.
