Bio

Mr Deng Chenghua is currently a Ph.D. student in the Crystal Engineering Research Group at the University of Limerick, Ireland. He was born inWuhan, Hubei Province, China in 1991 and received his B.Sc. (2014) and M.Sc. (2017) degrees from Hunan First Normal University and Nankai University. His master’s stage research work focused on electrochemistry properities research of cyclodextrin constructed inorganic-organic hybrid materials, supervised by Prof. Cheng Peng and Dr. Ma Jiangong.

His current research interest centers on crystal engineering of rod building blocks(RBBs) from structure & topology to application.
