Rate My Professor Mi Tian

Affiliated with the Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems and the Centre for Integrated Materials, Processes & Structures, Mi Tian has progressed from postdoctoral researcher to her current leadership roles at the University of Bath. She leads as principal investigator on EPSRC-funded projects such as Near-room Temperature Solid-state Hydrogen Storage (2025-2027) and contributes to initiatives like GW SHIFT and UK-HyRES as Co-Director. Notable publications include the review 'Hydrate-Based H2 Storage with Porous Materials as Heterogeneous Promoters: State of the Art and Challenges' in Journal of Materials Chemistry A (2025, 10 citations) and 'Mechanochemical Dual-Metal Modification of CuBTC Metal–Organic Frameworks for Enhanced Hydrogen Storage' in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces (2025). She received the 2019 Ede and Ravenscroft Research Staff Prize for her presentation on engineering porous materials for sustainable energy and the EPSRC Women in Engineering Ambassador award in 2023. Her contributions support the UK's hydrogen economy by improving energy storage for grid-scale applications, carbon emission reduction, and energy security.
