Isaiah graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 2022 with a B.S. in chemistry and a B.A. in mathematics. There, he studied under Prof. Bayram Saparov working on exploratory synthesis of a variety of new hybrid organic-inorganic metal halides for light emission and detection applications. At Northwestern, he is jointly working in the Kanatzidis and Sargent labs to design and implement new perovskite materials for photovoltaics applications with the aim of improving overall device performance and stability

Chuying graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a B.S. degree in Chemistry and a minor in Materials Science & Engineering in 2022. Under the supervision of Dr. Oliver Gessner at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), her undergraduate research focuses on using femtosecond time-resolved optical laser pump X-ray probe photoelectron spectroscopy to study electronic dynamics at the interface of Si and other materials, which aims at exploring the next-generation solar cell materials. At Northwestern University, Chuying is co-advised by Prof. Edward H. Sargent and Prof. Lin Chen to conduct research on the carrier dynamics of 2D and 3D perovskite, and perovskite quantum dots using ultrafast spectroscopy, with the aim of giving guidance to improve the performances of future optoelectronic devices.
