I’m Linh Chung, currently a senior at University of California, Berkeley majoring in Chemical Engineering. My main motivation for choosing the major as well as doing research is to help solve the problem of pollution. I’m interested in developing clean sources of energy. Aside from my academics, I love traveling and experience new culture around the world. The PIRE program provided me with the opportunity to do both: working on a novel design of electrolysis/fuel cell and learn more about Japan. I spent two months here at I2cner earning experience not only in my research but also discipline and proper manner. I would like to show my gratefulness toward professor Hiroshige Matsumoto, my lab mentors and all the other members for taking me in Prof Matsumoto’s lab and everyone for being very friendly, helpful and patiently answer all of my questions.
