Ganlin Chen was born in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, P.R. China. He received the B.S. in New Energy Materials and Devices (Sino-foreign Cooperation) from Soochow University (Suzhou, P.R. China) in 2019. He was a PhD student in Qi's group and worked on deformation mechanisms due to twinning and phase transformation in Ti alloys. He successfully defended his Ph.D. dissertation in May 2026 and is a Postdoc in Qi's group.

Jierui Zhao got my Bachelor's degree at East China University of Science and Technology in 2020. He earned his Masters degree in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2023. He is now pursuing a PhD in MSE at the University of Michigan. He is applying first-principles simulations, atomistic simulations, and machine learning to investigate the dislocation properties in advanced alloys, particularly refractory complex concentrated alloys (RCCAs).
