Travis Shihao Hu is a Senior Professor at California State University, Los Angeles. His research integrates materials science, chemical engineering, and applied physics, focusing on advanced nanomaterials, adhesion, and nano energy. Recent breakthroughs include machine-learning-optimized MXene/Bi2Se3 electrodes for trace heavy metal detection in sweat, 2D SnOx/SnS2 heterostructures for neuromorphic computing memristors, and surface-engineered MXene/CNT aptasensors for immunoglobulin E detection. He also investigates transition metal dichalcogenides for fuel cells and on-chip electrocatalysis, alongside triboelectric, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric nanogenerators. His work was supported by a 2020 NSF award (USD 246,218) on molecular interfaces of multifunctional bio-/nano-materials.
