We are proud to announce that BEST Lab members Anlin Shaju and Aleesha K. Paulose have received the Bronze Award at the NYCU 2025 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Academic Poster Competition.
Their award-winning poster, titled“Interface Engineering via Anion-Driven SEI Coordination in Silver-Nucleated Lithium Metal Batteries,”was completed under the supervision of Prof. Yu-Sheng Su.
This research focuses on innovative interface engineering strategies for lithium metal batteries. By leveraging anion-driven SEI coordination and silver nucleation design, the team aims to enhance lithium deposition stability and overall battery performance. The work reflects BEST Lab’s continued commitment to advancing sustainable energy storage technologies and supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in clean energy and sustainable innovation.
The competition was organized by the Office of Sustainable Development and University Social Responsibility at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, with the award ceremony held on October 23, 2025.
Congratulations to our award recipients, and thank you to all team members and mentors for their support. BEST Lab will continue striving for excellence in next-generation battery research and sustainable energy solutions. 🔋✨
Our lab is pleased to share that Prof. Yu-Sheng Su has successfully received a renewal of the Ministry of Education (MOE) Yushan Young Scholar Program, extending the award for an additional five-year term.
The renewal recognizes sustained research productivity and continued academic development over the initial funding period. Support from the Yushan Young Scholar Program enables the lab to further pursue long-term research directions and strengthen training for young researchers.
We appreciate the continued support from the Ministry of Education and look forward to the next stage of research progress.
This year’s conference season has been a truly rewarding one for BEST Lab, and I’m excited to share our achievements. Our team delivered outstanding presentations across multiple sessions, showcasing the strength and depth of our research.
A special congratulations to⭐ Anlin, who received the Excellent Award for Oral Presentation, and⭐ Steven and Wendy, who earned the Excellent Award for Poster Presentation.Their hard work and clarity in communicating complex ideas were recognized at the highest level.
I also want to highlight the contributions of Adeline, Amanda, Jacky, Michael, and Peter, who all delivered strong poster presentations and helped promote our latest advances in battery materials and characterization. Their professionalism and enthusiasm drew great attention from attendees throughout the event.
I’m genuinely proud of the entire team. These accomplishments reflect not only technical excellence but also growth, teamwork, and dedication. Looking forward to even bigger milestones ahead!
