Prof. Mingxin Huang received his bachelor's and Master's degrees from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2002 and 2004 respectively, and his PhD in Materials science from Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands in 2008. From 2008 to 2010, he worked as a research engineer at ArcelorMittal, the world's largest steel company, in Metzieremets, France. His research work at ArcelorMittal focuses on the development of new advanced steels for automotive lightweight. Professor Wong joined the University of Hong Kong as an Assistant Professor in 2010 and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2016 and full Professor in 2019. Professor Huang's research focuses on two areas: (1) the relationship between microstructure and properties of advanced steels and alloys and the fundamental principles of phase transformation; and (2) the development of lightweight materials for automotive applications. His research work consists of both simulation and experiment.   Prof. Huang has published more than 100 SCI journal papers in top international journals of Science, Acta Materialia, Scripta Materialia, JMPS, IJP and other disciplines. Professor Huang is also a Cheung Kong Scholar Chair Professor of the Ministry of Education.
