Personal profile
Dr. Xiaolong Lu is an Assistant Professor at the School of Intelligent Manufacturing Ecosystem, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University. His research focuses on surface engineering, additive manufacturing, and advanced materials processing. After earning his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Soochow University in 2022, he worked as an Assistant Researcher and Postdoctoral Associate at the Suzhou Institute of Nano-Tech and Nano-Bionics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. His international experience includes a joint Ph.D. training program at Florida International University.
Dr. Lu actively serves the academic community as a Youth Editorial Board Member for Journal of Materials Informatics, Additive Manufacturing Frontiers, Advanced Materials Joining, and Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing, and serves as a reviewer for multiple prestigious journals. He is also a Senior Member of the Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society.
His research group seeks passionate, self-motivated students who are driven by scientific curiosity and enjoy developing innovative theories and applications. Currently, there are openings for Ph.D. candidates, graduate students, and talented undergraduates. The ideal candidates should demonstrate strong initiative in pursuing novel research directions, while enthusiasm for discovery matters more than prior research experience. Interested students are encouraged to contact Dr. Lu with their research interests and academic background.
