I am Ming-Shi Song, a PhD candidate at RMIT University. I started my PhD project on Multifunctional Coatings for Biomedical Mg alloys in 2017.
ALUMNUS – Current LinkedIn profile including contact details.
I received my Bachelor’s degrees in Material Formation and Control Engineering & Software Engineering from Dalian Jiaotong University in China in 2012. In the years that followed, I achieved three different master's degrees, Master of Advanced Engineering Materials from University of Manchester (UK) and Master of Advanced Engineering (Mechanical) & Master of Business from Monash University (Australia). I have strong research interests in biomaterials, light alloys and surface modification. I hope that my research can be used in the medical care field to alleviate unnecessary pain and expense for patients.
