Dr Xin Wang:
My name is Xin Wang. I work as a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Advanced Materials and Performance Textiles in the School of Fashion and Textiles.
My background is in textiles and materials engineering. Throughout my career I have been focusing on developing new textile materials, innovative manufacturing technology and the related assessment techniques.
My research aims to develop performance textiles with fancy functions, protections and perfect comfort.
The impact of my research has been evidenced by the quality and citation of my published research work and also by the patented IP that I generated for further commercialisation and also the commercialised testing methods and also related testing standard.

I saw the advertisement of this Vice-Chancellor's Senior Research Fellowship and I thought to myself "Well this is great." This is a very good chance for me to build up my research profile, for me to set up my own research team and also for me to do the research that I really like.
Well I've been focusing on RMIT for so many years because my background is textile and, you know, RMIT has the school of fashion and textiles so which my expertise aligns well. And so this chance comes to me and I thought to myself "This is great," you know, I can – I can play with textiles and materials and I can achieve the goal of my research and my academic dream.
