Jinho Park's profile picture
Research Scientist II

Jinho Park, Ph.D. is a Senior Research Scientist of  the Resilient Infrastructure and Supply Chain (RISC) Unit, the Cybersecurity, Information Protection, and Hardware Evaluation Research (CIPHER) Laboratory at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI). At the GTRI, he has been participating in several industry- and state-sponsored projects related to energy, environmental, and health technologies. Jinho has been working on design/synthesis/characterization of functional materials along with their applications toward energy storage systems (Li-ion batteries, all-solid state batteries, supercapacitors, and phase change materials), energy conversion systems (fuel cells, water electrolyzers, and ammonia cracking), multifunction sensors, etc. He is also involved in commercialization of for novel technologies through increasing their TRL/CRL as well as developing a commercialization roadmap.

Prior to joining the GTRI, he has worked in School of Chemistry and Biochemistry and School of Mechanical Engineering of the Georgia Tech as a graduate research assistant and a postdoctoral fellow, respectively, conducting researches in materials for advanced energy storage/conversion systems. Notably, he has worked with several automotive companies, such as General Motors, Toyota Motor Corp., and Nissan Motor Company for seeking to a high-performance fuel cell electrocatalysts and with Samsung Electronics for a research of a next-generation Li-ion battery.

Jinho Park holds a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science degrees in Chemical Engineering from Sogang University (Seoul, South Korea), a Master of Science degree in Energy, Environmental and Chemical Engineering from Washington University (St. Louis, Missouri), and Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, Georgia).
