Jing Li Lab - Current Group Members

Gia Carignan

guoyu ZhangPh.D. Student (2022 - Present)

 

Gia graduated from Stony Brook University with a B.S. in chemistry with departmental honors in 2021. Her undergraduate research focused on lithium deposition in rechargeable batteries and energy storage. She then entered the Ph.D. program at Rutgers University and joined Dr. Jing Li’s group where she will be focusing on the synthesis and characterization of inorganic-organic hybrid materials.
