Yoonjae (Yoon) Park

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Chemistry at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), working with Prof. Adam Willard on understanding the electrochemical dynamics near the aqueous electrode interface. I completed my Ph.D. at the University of California-Berkeley in Chemistry in 2023 under the supervision of Prof. David Limmer. My doctoral study focused on studying the interplay between structural dynamics and optoelectronic properties of semiconducting materials. Prior to my Ph.D., I received B.S. in Chemistry and Mathematics in 2016 (Summa Cum Laude), and M.S. in Chemistry in 2018 from Sogang University, advised by Prof. Bong June Sung, working on identifying the structural motif in glass-forming liquids. Further details can be found in CV.
