Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolX Sun is a PhD student and researcher in mechanical engineering at UC Berkeley with eight years of hands-on experience in additive manufacturing, biofabrication, and optics. They specialize in volumetric 3D printing via Computed Axial Lithography (CAL), having designed experiments, developed new photopolymer formulations, co-led an open-source CAL printer build, and improved projection generation for better optical performance. Their work spans soft hydrogel mechanics, multi-wavelength bioprinting collaborations, and theoretical simulations for metal powder volumetric printing, bridging experiment, materials discovery, and modeling. Beyond the lab, X has led multidisciplinary student teams on COVID air purification, ventilator adaptation, and marine energy projects, showing a knack for rapid prototyping and grant-backed project leadership. Based in Berkeley, they combine optical and micro/nano manufacturing interests with practical tissue-engineering applications—bringing a rare mix of optics-aware printing optimization and wet-lab biomaterials expertise.
