Tu Le

Tu Le is a leader in the field of Machine Learning for Materials Science and Engineering, with a focus on the development and optimization of advanced, functional materials for clean energy, environmental sustainability, and healthcare applications. Her research spans diverse domains such as metal organic frameworks for CO₂ capture, liquid metal alloys for CO₂ reduction, perovskites for photocatalysts, metallic materials for additive manufacturing, and polymers with antimicrobial activities. Her research portfolio, which highlights the proficiency in using ML to streamline the discovery and characterization of new materials, has been featured in in top journals such as Chemical Reviews, Chemical Society Reviews, Materials Today, Angewandte Chemie, and Journal of the American Chemical Society. 

She was the recipient of multiple awards and recognitions such as the Jacques-Emile Dubois Award of the International Chemical Structure Association Trust, Fresh Scientist of Victoria State, Club Melbourne Fellowship Finalist, RMIT Vice Chancellor’s Fellowship, and CASS Foundation award. She was 1 in 6 representatives from Australia to attend the 6^th HOPE meeting with Nobel Laureates in Tokyo (nominated and funded by the Australia Academy of Science and the Japan Society of for the Promotion of Science). She was a keynote and invited speaker at many international conferences such as the European Materials Research Society Fall meeting, International Conference on Advanced Polymers, Biomaterials and Nanomedicine, and the International Workshop on Combinatorial Materials Science and Technology.
