Three more researchers recognised as leaders of the future

Anthony Vasileff, Xiaoguang Duan and Dongliang Chao were among the top five to be listed in the field of Chemistry and Materials. What a wonderful achievement.

Anthony Vasileff received his PhD in chemical engineering at the University of Adelaide in 2020 and researches the reaction fundamentals of key energy conversion processes like water electrolysis and CO2 reduction to fuels to develop catalyst design strategies. He aims to provide innovative solutions for a green economy. The list recognises his research into Materials Engineering.

He says it is a real honour to be named on the list and receive recognition for all the hard work that’s gone into the research.

“There is some fantastic work being done by innovative Australians in renewable energy fields and I hope that celebration of it by the broader public continues to grow,” he said.
