Mao is a doctoral student, originally from Southern China. He loves to combine different analytical techniques to better understand extraction processes. An important method in his work is that of spin coated thin membranes that can be interrogated by exhaustive ion transfer voltammetry. After his Ph.D. defence is planning to move to Nanyang Technological University in Singapore to join the group of Grzegorz Lisak.
