Profile Articles Activity
I am currently a PhD candidate at the Institute for Frontier Materials, Deakin University under the supervision of Prof. Joselito M. Razal. Prior to joining Deakin, I have received my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from the University of the Philippines (UP) in 2013 and 2018, respectively. Currently, my PhD work focuses on developing MXene-based composite fibers, which is considered among the hottest and most-studied nanomaterials, with application in multiple fields such as energy storage, structural composites, environmental remediation and nanomedicine.
Through both of my Masters and PhD courses, I have authored/co-authored 28 research articles. 19 of these papers where published during my Phd, including 3 first-authored journal articles, 3 first-authored review articles and 1 article as corresponding author. At the end of 2021, I received the Excellence in Research Award during IFM Staff and HDR Awards as a result of my outstanding research outcomes during that year. Now, I am at the tail end of my PhD and is expected to finish and submit a thesis by July 2022. As one of the seniors, I was recently assigned as the Student Representative, for our institutes Education and Training Sub-committee, where I primarily represent IFMs PhD students in committee meetings. This position also allowed me to get involved in creating policies and training program dedicated for developing and overseeing a younger generation of IFM students. I am hoping that after PhD, I could continue my research here and Australia and further contribute to the growing field of smart/functional textiles.
