Huan Doan

I am currently working as a Senior Research Fellow at the Australian National University. Prior to this role, I spent time at the University of Bristol, first as a Research Associate (2019-2020) and later as an independent EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow from 2020 to 2023. ​ My academic journey began with a BSc and MSc in Chemical Engineering from the Hanoi University of Mining and Geology, Vietnam, in 2009 and 2012 respectively. This was followed by an MRes in Sustainable Chemical Technologies from the University of Bath, UK, in 2015. I completed my academic odyssey with a PhD in Mechanical Engineering in 2019 from the University of Bristol. ​ My research primarily revolves around the synthesis and characterisation of porous materials—including metal-organic frameworks, zeolites, and functional silicas. I harness these materials to address pressing challenges in sustainable development, particularly in areas of catalysis, gas separation, and energy storage.
