Senior Research Consultant | Battery Materials, Fuel cells, Polymer & Applied Chemistry | 34 SCI Papers, & 7 Patents

Profile Summary

I am a PhD-trained Applied Chemist and Senior Research Consultant with over 8 years of experience across academic and industrial R&D. My expertise spans lithium-ion batteries, electrochemistry, functional polymers, nanomaterials, and applied materials science. I have authored 34 peer-reviewed SCI/SCIE journal publications and hold 7 Korean patents. My research background includes battery materials and performance evaluation during my postdoctoral and industry roles, as well as interdisciplinary work in nanobio and medicinal materials. I have worked extensively on research design, experimental planning, data interpretation, and high-impact scientific writing. On Kolabtree, I support researchers, startups, and R&D teams with: • Scientific manuscript editing and restructuring (SCI/SCIE journals) • Major and minor revision responses to journal reviewers • Technical and narrative literature reviews • Research proposals and grant application editing • Battery materials and electrochemistry consulting • Preparation of figures, schematics, and graphical abstracts I combine deep technical understanding with strong scientific communication, ensuring that complex research is presented clearly, logically, and persuasively. I focus on improving acceptance probability, addressing reviewer concerns strategically, and meeting tight deadlines without compromising quality. I have collaborated with international research groups and industry teams, and I am comfortable working on confidential projects under NDAs. My approach is practical, detail-oriented, and results-driven, with a strong emphasis on delivering publication-ready and decision-ready outputs. I am open to short-term consulting, fixed-fee projects, and ongoing collaborations.
