Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnthony Cheng is a PhD candidate in Engineering & Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon focused on the systemic risks and geopolitical implications of EV battery materials and supply chains. With nine years of interdisciplinary experience spanning materials science, computer science, urban sustainability, and energy systems, he blends hands-on data and software work with policy-driven research—evidenced by NSF and Macro-Energy Systems fellowships and a stint modeling energy-storage systems at Malta. His background includes building data pipelines and full-stack tools for venture and research settings, plus science communication work at MIT that turns complex industrial decarbonization topics into accessible audio documentaries. Comfortable moving between code, lab, and policy rooms, he aims to accelerate the energy transition by linking materials innovations to real-world deployment and supply-chain resilience.
