2025-01 NOAA GFDL LAB REVIEW.

I presented at the 2025 NOAA GFDL Lab Review at Princeton, discussing my work on the “Development and Evaluation of GLAMM (GFDL Aerosol Modal Model): A New Aerosol Microphysical Model for GFDL’s Atmospheric Model AM4.0.” [Poster] This has been a massive project, taking me two years to code and implement the new aerosol microphysical model in GCMs. It’s incredibly exciting to see it finally reach the evaluation stage, and I am deeply grateful to my wonderful hosts, Paul Ginoux and Fabien Paulot, for their support throughout this journey.

2024-12 AGU24 Fall Meeting.

I presented at the 2024 AGU Fall Meeting in Washington D.C., discussing the work: "Parameterizing the Impact of Phase State on the Ice Nucleation Abilities of Organic Aerosols." [Poster][Paper]

I was honored to serve as the chair for the AGU24 session A51T & A54G: "Recent Advances in Aerosol Representation and Its Impacts on Climate, Air Quality, and Health," alongside my fantastic co-chairs: Ron L. Miller, Enrico Zorzetto, Arman Pouyayi, and Qianqian Song. This year, we received many fascinating presentations, and I would like to express my gratitude to all the presenters and attendees for their contributions.

2024-08 ACS Fall Meeting.

I gave an invited talk at the 2024 ACS Fall meeting in Denver, presenting how molecular dynamics simulations can bridge knowledge gaps regarding water film energetics on clay minerals across various relative humidity conditions, from low to saturation.

2024-06 AGU Session Proposal Accepted.

I am thrilled to announce that our AGU24 session proposal titled “A119. Recent Advances in Aerosol Representation and its Impacts on Climate, Air Quality, and Health”, has been accepted! Please check and submit your abstracts to our session here. 

2024-04 C. Ellen Gonter Award.

I am honored to receive the 2023 American Chemistry Society Division of Environmental Chemistry C. Ellen Gonter Award. This prestigious award is presented to graduate students at U.S. and international universities who submit the highest quality research papers. It is the highest honor granted by the Division of Environmental Chemistry for students.

2024-03 ACS Spring Meeting.

I presented at the 2024 ACS Spring meeting in New Orleans, discussing the hygroscopic growth of adsorbed water films on smectite clay nano-particles.

2024-03 Aerosol/Cloud Microphysics Roundtable.

I am very excited to present my first climate modeling work at the GFDL Aerosol/Cloud Microphysics Roundtable. I discussed our ongoing effort to implement aerosol microphysics in the GFDL atmospheric model. This work is in collaboration with my super-supportive mentors, Dr. Paul Ginoux and Dr. Fabien Paulot.

2024-04 Spring Into Science Event, Science Outreach Program. 

Our team demonstrated the impact of the Coriolis force on the Earth system through an engaging experiment with a rotating tank for 4th to 10th-grade students in the New Jersey community, aiming to make science more accessible for young learners.

2024-Present Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee.

I am excited to serve as the Postdoc representative on the DEI committee for the Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University.
