I am a postdoc researcher at University of Turku. I received my BSc and MSc from University of Bejaia (Algeria) where I studied the effects of organic ageing at the Laboratory of materials physics, chemistry, and catalysis in 2016. I was awarded by the Chinese Scholarship Council a full scholarship (2017-2020) to pursue a PhD in materials science and engineering at Jiangsu University where I also did a postdoc in the field of environmental science and engineering until 2023. During this period in China, I developed and investigated Pt-free catalysts for clean energy conversion and energy storage: fuel cells and metal-air batteries using carbon nanomaterials.
